conservatism

In the past several weeks I've talked with many Republicans that have expressed that they were disheartened with some of our Republican elected officials.  With the way some things have gone in recent years, I can certainly see how that would be the case.

But someone once told me that the most important thing to remember when it comes to trying to have an impact for your values in politics comes down to one simple word - "stay".  As in stay involved.  Don't let others discourage you from involvement in our party.  Don't give your position of leadership in this party over to someone else who might not think like you do.  Stay involved and work to keep our party focused on conservative principles, and let those who disagree be the ones who get disheartened, not you.

Don't give up on the chance to have an impact on the things that you care about!  Remember, this party stands for what WE say that it stands for.  That's what our platform is all about.  We set the agenda, not elected officials.
