The Religious... Left?

One of the leaders of this exodus is Chris LaTondresse, …

Spring Cleaning Comes Early at RNC

In case you missed it, Michael Steele became the new RNC Chairman last week. He said in his acceptance speech that "it's time for something completely different." He wasn't joking.

Yesterday, Steele gave legs to his rhetoric by asking the 100 staff members at the RNC to …

Democratic Depression

This little gem comes from our friends at Post Secret. We're guessing many on the left are having similar bouts of depression. On the flip side, though, many Republicans are likely realizing the benefits of being in the minority.

Democrats are now the ones who are …

Just Say No

President Obama recently said that we all need to show the same spirit and courage as the Founders of this great country. I’m glad to say that on this point, the President and I actually agree. I only hope he’ll follow his own advice.

Alexander the Great is said to …

A Friendly Reminder: Don't Lose Focus

We have a new president. This reality has set in for many of us after months of media-driven euphoria culminating in a historic inauguration. Now it's back to politics.

A Young Conservative's Manifesto

Upon the election of our new President, Barack Obama, many of my friends (even conservatives) encouraged me to give our new leader a chance. I agreed with that request. I did my best to believe (maybe out of naivety) that despite his record, I would give the chance of …

Leading the Way, A Farewell Address

My grandfather, a pastor, has told me many times that leadership is a bloody nose and having both of your front teeth knocked out. Sometimes the saying varies and it’s a broken nose and black eye. But in the end, the essence of leadership is facing more persecution than …

Republican Tree Huggers

Bleeding Heart Conservatives

Liberals are personally stingy. A recent NY Times article by a self-proclaimed liberal bemoans the fact that conservatives give 30% more to charity than do liberals. Maybe this is why those leaning left are in favor of government handouts.

I'm sure this comes as a shock …

Time for New Blood?

As the new year starts, a major question remains: what is the future of the Republican Party? It might take several years to figure out. One of the first steps, though, is determining who will be the new RNC chairman.

A Misunderstood Hero's Foreign Policy Legacy

"A hero who has become the scandal of his generation, aware that he is a paradox that cannot be understood, cries undaunted to his contemporaries: 'The future will show I was right!'"

No, this is not a reference to our soon-to-be-former President George W. Bush …

Shallow Policies and a Damaged Brand

If you could secretly give Republican officials four suggestions, what would they be? Charlie Cook, from the National Journal, recently gave that opportunity to two leading political consultants. Here are their best thoughts, in our opinion:

1) The desire for change in …

Rebuild the Party

As everyone knows, Democrats used this thing called the "Internet" a little better than Republicans in the past election. Rebuild the Party hopes to change that.

The group of conservatives behind the website have a plan to get the Republican Party back in the game, using …

Why Sarah Palin Should Write a Book

Since Sarah Palin lost her bid to become the first female VP, buzz of a 2012 presidential run has surrounded her. Buzz can be a good thing, especially if you're wanting to change your public image (and make some money off writing a book).

Will Republicans Win in 2010?

Despite recent losses, many conservatives are optimistic about the future. But not all. David Frum, a conservative columnist, thinks it a little too optimistic to predict a Republican return in 2010.

Frum gives four reasons why it will take longer, with his main reason …

Bobby in 2012?

The next Republican presidential candidate will likely be a current governor. That much is clear. What's unclear is which governor it will be. Many think, and hope, it will be Bobby Jindal from Louisiana.

Mr. Jindal, a 37 year-old Indian American, recently told fellow …
