Major Grassroots Effort Starts NOW — A PLEA TO ACT NOW
In my post below, I ask that you include several blog posts (articles). Please include this one among those you choose. This is incredible. Once you go to this link, be sure to click on each table (there are two) to expand each table to full view. Every voter in America needs to see this table before voting Tuesday. With your help to convert the message to viral effect, we can surpass the results that the State of Maine got yesterday. The State of Maine stepped up folks. They sent a resounding signal of extraordinary example yesterday. Let’s combine with the constant megaphone blasting of talk radio and get the word out in in ways never before seen at the grassroots level.
YES, IT CAN BE DONE. We can cause a major sea-change.

I AM PLEADING WITH YOU: I just realized that today is Super-Bowl Sunday. Since I never watch professional football, I forgot. I realize you may have plans today. Please, please, please don’t let those plans take priority over the message I left at the previous post. This election for President of the United States is way too important. If possible, please create your email and send it off early in the day, but please DO IT!
AND THANK YOU!

I’ve been calling and emailing CNN, N Y Times, etc. about the lack of coverage of the Maine Caucus. THEY HAVE ALL BURIED OR FAILED TO COVER IT. Get on the phones and start emailing to get some coverage.
EVEN AFTER FLORIDA Mitt pounded McCain 2-1 in Maine! THAT IS BIG NEWS.

Romney Wins Maine Republican Party Caucuses By A Wide Margin
Sunday, February 3, 2008
By John Kinsellagh
McCain, Romney and the Future of the Republican Party
Although it is too early to be a harbinger of Super Tuesday, I found the news of Mitt Romney’s win in Maine to be very encouraging for those conservatives in the Republican Party who don’t think it is a splendid idea to have a de facto Democrat capture the GOP nomination. Romney won handily over McCain with heavy voter turnout. Is Romney’s win significant?
I think it is.
Maine is a state with a sizable bloc of independent voters. Its two Senators, Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, are John McCain’s ideological soul-mates —both are RINO’s to the core. It has been reported that during the caucus, when Snowe spoke on behalf of McCain, she was booed. Could it have been a reaction to his snarky, insufferable and self-righteous performance at the debate last Wednesday? Perhaps. Or maybe it was the recent, and rather damning revelation, that McCain expressed — on more than one occasion — a desire to join the political party more attuned to his natural ideological inclination (see, Comprehensive Immigration Reform, signing on to the global warming hysteria bandwagon, and Sandbagging his fellow Republicans in their attempt to nominate conservative justices).
Over the years, I’ve grown weary of McCain’s posturing as a “Maverick” to the adulation of a fawning liberal mainstream media, whose attention he eagerly and shamelessly solicits. He excoriated those who opposed his giving the store away with his horribly misguided Amnesty Bill, and to this day, he hasn’t changed his tune on securing the border. Witness his evasive non-answer during the debate when asked if he would sign his Immigration Bill as president. So much for The Straight Talk Express. His bus clearly has run off the road into a gully and is careening out of control.
Outside of his unstinting support for the War on Terror, it is hard to see in what sense McCain is a core conservative. He not only exhibits contempt for conservatives, he rubs our faces in the dirt with his tiresome sanctimony. Exhibit “A” is his loathing of those who dared question the wisdom and philosophical basis of his far-fetched and far-reaching Immigration Bill, which in essence, was an effrontery and a debasement of the whole civic notion of American citizenship. To crown him as the standard bearer of the party, given his left-leaning political views, which are anathema to far too many in the Republican Party to me is an unnecessary act of self-immolation.
I find it perplexing as well as incomprehensible that McCain should be the Republican Party’s nominee, when the fact of the matter is that to date, he has failed to garner anything approaching a plurality of Republican voters. Why this does not cause dismay and consternation amongst the party’s elders is a distressing sign of the sorry state of the leadership of today’s Republican Party.
John McCain is the establishment candidate. The embrace of McCain by the national party apparatus demonstrates just how diffident the current managers of the party are of a Romney victory. As a demonstrable Democrat-wanna-be, the idea that McCain would be a more electable candidate against the Democratic nominee in the general election is wholly specious. As the saying goes, given a choice between a Democrat and a Democrat, the voters will choose the democrat every time…
It is fitting that McCain should bring Senator Joe Lieberman on the campaign trail with him, for both men, are, truly political homeless persons: Lieberman is a Scoop Jackson Democrat, and here is the rub, so is McCain. But, as Lieberman’s humiliating banishment by his party attests, the party of Scoop Jackson is but a distant memory. Which raises an interesting question, why therefore, would McCain want to join their ranks? An interesting question, indeed…
Nominating a man who enjoys poking a stick in the eye of not only true conservatives, but also who has engaged in treachery by sabotaging a party who won a national election from attempting to implement its stated agenda would be an act of unrivaled political suicide. A question arises: given all the trouble he has caused the party, is McCain the best man for the nomination?
Must we accept a man that continues to openly disavow the conservative principles that once distinguished the Republican from the Democratic Party?
Peggy Noonan was correct. Through the vehicle of a squishy and pristinely undefined brand of “compassionate conservatism,” under the tutelage of George Bush, the Republican Party has been ruined. Mitt Romney is the last best chance to stave off a dispiriting, and perhaps, irreversible decline of a party that has nobly served as a bulwark against the ever increasing leftward tilt of the Democrats.
They say that half a loaf is better than none. The sad truth is the nomination of John McCain isn’t half a loaf, it’s bread crumbs that will be strewn on the heap of what was once a Grand Old Party.
Go Mitt, Go…

Has anyone yet mentioned that Dr. Walid Phares, a Lebanese American expert on the Middle East terrorism has endorsed Romney over all candidates in both parties as being the nominee who could best combat terrorism. I found this on My Man Mitt blog.
This should be big among those who think McCain is better on national security.

Dear Vic,
Thankyou for your blog. I am preparing to send out my own email which includes the POTUS Leadership Index to many friends across the country. I’d like to know more about the index. Who created it and what the parameters for each category are. Please respond ASAP as I’m trying to get this out before 2 p.m. this afternoon.
Thank you very much

Vic, thanks for all you are doing.
Dr. Phares was my professor in college, he is a very wise man and it is great to have his endorsement. He has been on NBC as a terrorist expert for years. I have been sending this message to many blogs:
This is not over! As we all know, things happen in California first. Romney now has the momentum and is leading in Cali. This will spread the rest of the country. Super Tuesday will not be the end. Then Romney can take McCain one on one the rest of the way. All true conservatives need to get on the bandwagon for Romney. Come on in Paul supporters, Fred Heads, Huckabee supporters and friends of Rudy. Let’s take back our Republican party by voting for Romney!
I hope that us Romney supporters are not just using our best methods of getting the word out in Romney friendly circles. We need to go where we are not comfortable, to change peoples minds. Go to the Huckabee supporter sites, Paul sites, Thompson sites, Rudy sites and even McCain sites to make our case. Call into a radio talk show or even go door to door. We must not get comfortable. We are going through these hard times so that we are better prepared for the Presidential election in November!

John:
OUTSTANDING MESSAGE! Thanks to you all for working so hard in this way! Never underestimate the power of the people to mobilize in this way. We will make this happen.
We need every person’s help now. The liberal mainstream media is not even mentioning the huge win in Maine. Let’s turn that tide now.

Re: Romney vs. McCain
Sen. John McCain claims to be the real National / Global authority and leader in Washington. After all, he knows how Washington, D.C. works.
After September 11, 2001 - U.S. Senator John McCain of Arizona, still allowed the mass invasion of illegal immigrants though his southern boarder that may include the obvious foreign drug-runners, criminals, etc., and probable jihad-cell terrorists in the United States.
Sen. McCain with all Washington’s king horses, and all his kings men, could not stop the mass foreign invasion through his Arizona state. The McCain-Kennedy “Amnesty Bill” was his Washington, D.C. “solution.” Republican McCain sold-out to conservative America by waving his ‘white flag’ and bowed to the Washington, D.C. liberal establishment - again!
Folks- Wake Up! Washington D.C. is broken! This is one principal reason America was hit on 9/11 - and why it’s likely to happen again without conservative leadership in the White House.
Se. John McCain of Arizona is the poster-boy why Washington, D.C. doesn’t work.
True Americans - If you are up-set with the Washington, D.C. liberal establishment and can’t take it any more - on February 5th, put on your boots and take off your gloves - and vote for conservative Republican leadership to fix Washington.
Gov. Mitt Romney will protect our American boarders, and reshape a stronger U.S. military and intelligence. Our families will proper with a stronger economy by lowering taxes, less government - and fair global agreements to protect and advance our competitive job markets here in America.
For America’s best interest and future, Vote for Republican Gov. Mitt Romney for U.S. President!
