Part II I have not doubt that Impeachment would be more than possible....but the numbers for the votes are not there. If Obama remains in office for his entire second term, the United States as we currently know it will not likely exist. And, I'm one of those largely silent conservatives whom having this person in the office in the first place is the ultimate insult to being an American. My demands for the presidency are really quite limited......Show the flag the proper respect (Obama has never publicly even acknowledged it; be true to the office (Obama rewrites the law for his own benefit); be a military veteran (not!). Obama is the ultimate insult to everything the Presidency and the Constitution of the United States stands for.....

Before We Give Up, Could We At Least Try Selling Our Ideas?

We conservatives may never reach a consensus among ourselves as to the main factors that caused our election defeat, but surely we can agree that we must do a better job of selling our ideas.

Never mind, you say. The electorate has irreversibly become a taker class, and conservative ideas of self-reliance, personal responsibility and individual liberties will never appeal to a majority again, especially with demographics working against the GOP.

We must reject that, or we are as good as surrendering. To accept it, we are confessing our skepticism of the power of ideas, which itself is contrary to the conservative spirit.
