The RNC is soliciting ideas as to how they can improve their Grassroots effort, especially on line. If you would like to offer a suggestion you can use the form here.
I've played a small part in a working group discussing this issue over the last several days. It does seem as though they are committed to improving their efforts on line.
I suggest they read the Canada Free Press
"I am not an economist. But I will challenge any expert to dispute the fact that if President Obama took to the airwaves tomorrow and announced the Bush tax cuts would be extended and a capital gains tax cut was under consideration, the markets would immediately turn around.
That no-one is proposing this common sense solution is alarming. That no free market solutions are even under consideration is more alarming. That no-one is questioning who was responsible for the Sept. 15 run on money market accounts, or why the media was silent on it, lends credence to the possibility that our current economic crisis might not have been the result of a series of random events."

Lala: "That no-one is proposing this common sense solution is alarming."
It certainly is alarming. Common sense would dictate lowering taxes on income and investment, not poring cash and spending for political causes everywhere and then raising taxes and cutting spending to get money back. This plan is simply goofy on its face. The government is trying to recreate the bubble that just broke. Idiotic.
It is despicable for Republicans like Crist to go groveling for Fed dollars too.

"...pouring cash..."
Also see Hanson's comments on this recession, especially as it relates to Kalifornia.

How many have heard of Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson of http://www.bondaction.org/ ?

Lala,
Jesse has been on Hannity and Colmes many times over the past couple of years. He has a message that the left doesn't want folks to hear. Anytime a black conservative speaks the moonbats lash out and call them "Uncle Tom"!

I was watching Juan Williams last night and he was saying the same thing about himself. Peterson needs more exposure than just Hannity.
