The left, and
their mainstream media minions, are spinning. We don't blame them.
If we were liberals faced with the political realities of the past 6 months,
we would be spinning like a top! They say that this conservative
grassroots is shallow, that we will tire and become complacent before November. They are relying heavily on American
resilience sliding into a lack of resolve. And with good reason! Americans have
tended to move quickly past our national difficulties and even our tragedies. We believed that our Constitution and
our free enterprise system would keep us strong and free and able to overcome
whatever troubles we faced.
But what
happens in America when our founding principles and our liberties are under
assault; when our citizens are cynically pitted against one another by the left;
when the attack is not from without, but from within? The answer in 2010 is loud and clear. Tea Parties, 9/12 groups and dozens of
other citizen groups have attracted millions of Americans who have interrupted
their daily lives to express their concern for our Constitution and our
economic way of life.
Our voices have
been heard, but now it's time to turn our words into votes, and that's a big job. We need organization and training and to come together in
this effort. That is the purpose
of the New Mexico Conservative Summit. The Rio Grande Foundation and New Mexico Turn Around have invited American Majority to bring candidate and activist training to New Mexico conservatives. American
Majority has brought its training programs to activists in cities across
America, with great success and high praise from all who attend.
The Summit
includes a one-day comprehensive training for candidates on June 17th,
culminating with a welcome reception in the evening where candidates and activists
can meet and visit in an informal and comfortable environment. Activist training begins with breakfast
the following morning, June 18th, and continues until noon on
Saturday, June 19th. All
meals and the hors d'œuvres at the reception are included in the $100 fee for
the activist training. The $50 fee
for the candidate training includes lunch and the reception that evening, June
17th.
Please go to their website at http://www.nmturnaround.com/conference.htm for more
information and to register for this important event. We know that both the fee and the time
required is not easy, but nothing we
can do in this election cycle is more important to our candidates than
preparing ourselves to work for them in an effective way. Are we optimistic about our prospects
in November 2010? You bet we are, because of people like you! But we cannot afford to slacken, even
for a moment. It's what our
opponents are counting on. We can
take a breather on November 3rd. Until then, we must
do all that we can to preserve our American way of life. Our kids are counting on us
