Now it's our turn to hope for real "change"

There have been many good pieces written on the future of the conservative movement.
We that are the young people (and the rest of the party) can now hope that having swallowed a very bitter pill there will be a "change" for the better in our movement.

For the last 8 years (right after 911 being the exception) the Democratic party has shown how the minority party can be and are very relevant.

What the media won’t tell you is that for the last 8 years every single item that the Bush and the GOP wanted to pass unless they had 60 senators it never came to a vote on the floor. From Cabinet appointments (Obama did it in 05) Judges even the Ambassador to the UN (Josh Bolten) my point being that the democrats get as much credit and blame for the last 8 years.

Something the Democrats did very well was toe the party line. I mean how often do you see 10 senators agreeing on anything yet they voted as a block to abstract all of Bush agendas. While they worked and voted as one the GOP was slowly committing suicide with the help of its right but mostly the left with in its own party.

The GOP got fat and lazy never mind greedy. Gone or pushed to the side where the idealist, every time a member of the GOP was in trouble he was thrown over board and all it did was embolden the democrats. Haven't we read our own talking points that by giving in to the terrorist we are emboldening the enemy? That is exactly was happened in the Congress and the white house for that matter, we kept on throwing people over and guess what the country threw us over and elected to office the most liberal person ever.

We have to learn from history otherwise we are bound to repeat it and take our expensive lessons and move on to a brighter future one were we achieve our goals and can still look at our self's in the mirror. It is time for "the contract with America 2.0.

The next 4 years we should utilize the tricks a taught us by the democrats and make sure that noting gets by the senate that we don't approve of. We have to stand together as one to block anything that is not good for the county and is not part of our world view.
One major difference between us and the Dems is offer a clear alternative.
For 8 years the Dems stopped and hobbled bush and the GOP while not offering any alternatives and the only reason they are in office is because of our misdeeds not a great vision or any new ideas that they offered. We have to stop the liberal agenda and offer a clear alternative and fully explain our position in a united way.
We have to become the party of small government and fiscal responsibility again and stop the pork barrel for crying out loud.
We also have to be the party of the future, how you ask? Well the future is about new technologies, the rising powers of currently 3rd world countries (like China) and a world free of oil oh did I mention the unknown? The way to stay ahead is via education (I shall share with you my ideas on such at a later date) the GOP has to come up with a plan a backup plan and a double backup plan all with the goal of keeping the USA at the front of the world.
