In about a week we have an opportunity to define the nature of the CA Republican Party, hopefully with conservative candidates like Chuck DeVore. But we are not just in a battle to define the Republican Party but to define the very soul of our nation. Is our country based on a Constitution or as the progressives want, to define truth and morality as the need arises.
The powerful SEIU and AFSCME unions have declared they are putting up 100M toward the reelection of incumbents (Democrats), in November. Add to this the large war chests of the AFL-CIO, the two teachers unions, environmental groups, trial lawyers, etc. Will the Tea Partiers be able to maintain their status as the political leaders of the American people despite attacks from the left, with their vast resources, and the ongoing support of the MSM?
In the very fight of their lives, for if they lose, there is sure to be retribution, they are going to pull out all the stops. From this point on, nothing is sacred. Are we in a country that is to be defined by the huge establishment that has been created to maintain power for the political elites of the left. Let's face it, labor unions served an important purpose at the turn of the last century, but now do little more than serve as a power base for the union bosses. Republicans have thus far been afraid to go after the powerful unions, public employes and teachers.
Hopefully, due to the leftward swing of the government this past year and heavy handed Chicago style politics of the Obama administration, the American people will swing to the right. Despite the inclination of the left in our country, the nation as a whole does not like change, and prefers to maintain the status quo, except when ones livelihood is at risk. With the re-emergence of the Republican Party taking control of the Congress, there has to be a redefining of the power of those elites so that this cannot happen again.
