Our immediate objective is to take control of the House of Representatives in 2010.
Our strategy is to elect a caucus of 50 Independents, denying both the Republicans and Democrats a majority in the House.
The Democrats currently have about 255 seats, the Republicans about 180. You need 218 to control the House. Overall we want the Democrats to lose 50 seats, get Pelosi out as Speaker and return some checks and balances to the government. Without us the Republicans in 2010 might be able to pick up 10 - 20 seats, which will not stop the juggernaut! We are going to take 50 seats for the Independents, and then caucus with one or other of the major Parties to produce a coalition House government.
Stop the juggernaut! Here’s the hardest part: we may call on you to support candidates that you disagree with on issues you hold dear. They will be committed to our core principles, but on issues related to social mores, they may hold positions you oppose. How can you support someone who you may disagree with on, for example, gay marriage? That is very difficult, but we ask you to think strategically, with your eyes on the prize of stopping the "Progressive" destruction of the American Way of Life. Better a fiscal conservative/ socially liberal independent than a fiscal drunken sailor/ social extremist Pelosi democrat. (Our apologies to drunken sailors).
Our candidates will need money later; if you can’t help in any other way and you’re not poor, please support them financially.
Your country calls. Are you ready to stand up and be counted?
