Grassroots bring fresh ideas and new strategies to politics

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I’m continually amazed what comes out of meetings I have with groups of passionate conservatives. When you mix principles with some technology…and throw in a penchant for stirring the pot…you are seeing some very cool results.

I had a meeting yesterday where 3 game changing campaign tactics came out that I’d never considered. I moved onto another non-political meeting and bumped into a very creative conservative friend of mine and he delivered an idea that we’ll deploy shortly (when it’s public we’ll give public credit to this individual).

As Operation Red State continues to build momentum and bring on more consulting clients…you’ll see more of our concepts enter the “mainstream” like blogs, Facebook, and Twitter have. “So what” is my response to the Twitpoliticos who are embracing this new found manna. “Now you’ve got the same set of tools that Liberals embraced years ago…WHAT’S NEXT?”

The what’s next is what’s happening in our world.

I’d encourage you to include some new campaign ideas and fresh concepts in the comments below. If you think they should ONLY be viewed by conservatives so the other side won’t grab your brilliance…email it to me. We’ll give you credit when we go public with the tactica/idea/concept. Sound fair? Now sound off!
