Hi Everyone,

We haven't chatted in a while as things were brewing in Washington. A lot has happened  (midterm elections).....which could be seen as good, I guess....sorta. 

I know you all know what is going on - how the GOP, for the most part, is not on our side, so I won't get into that. 

We know that the NoRino parade is about to begin. We see the Grand Marshall, Karl Rove, shoving Bush, Romney and Christie down our throats, leading that parade. 

We knew this was coming.

Some of us disagree on who should really be the nominee. Some have questions about the eligibility of Ted Cruz. For the record, I have not seen proof of him being ineligible, so I will support him should he gain traction and become the nominee. 

I believe that like in any job, the person who does the hard work, gets the promotion. Cruz has done the hard work. 

Scott Walker is someone else who has proven himself to be worthy of leading this great country.  I would proudly support him.

Chris Christie is NOT someone I would support. I think we all know why.

Anyway, the purpose of this email was not to tell you who "I" want to see as our nominee, but to see what you are thinking. What do you think we can do as a group of 72 Tea Parties, to get the establishment to listen to us?

We see that protesting, looting and breaking windows gets attention, but I don't think that's what we are about. It is important to note, that our peaceful, informed, relentless messages have reached the masses. This last election was very telling. 

So, I am hoping some of you will respond with some suggestions on how we, as a large group of determined Patriots, can make a difference in the upcoming year. If we don't at least try, we will be throwing our shoes at the TV again as President Clinton or Warren addresses the nation.  HEAVEN FORBID, but it is a possibility we must consider. 

Thank you all and have a Merry Christmas, Happy Passover and Happy New Year.
