Betting the farm on it, as it were:
The Republican National Committee (RNC) is going all in to win back control of the House and Senate.
RNC spokesman Doug Heye said committee chairman Michael Steele is committed to using most, if not all, of its cash on hand in this year’s midterm elections.
Steele’s decision means that the RNC is not going to hold back significant funds for the 2012 race for the White House.
If we win, then the surge of support will generate whatever money we need for th 2012 cycle – and so I agree with this. Raise as much as possible and spend every red cent in 2010. Spend it everywhere – even in places where it might look a little forlorn. A wave is building out there – but to ensure it develops, we have to put the resources in to it.
We have this grand chance to really reshape American politics in 2010. A chance to take back our Congress in preparation for taking back the White House and then restoring America to the Founders’ vision. We can’t let worries drive the cart – do what needs to be done today, and let tomorrow take care of itself.
Democrats are betting that the economy will turn around enough by November to convince people to forget about how angry they are in April. Maybe it will come out that way – I don’t see it happening, but anything is possible in politics. Our bet is that the passion will not just continue, but continue to grow. Even if the Democrats get another couple months of alleged growth, it won’t be enough to save them – not when people are as upset over government as they are now.
So, lets have at it – all in and fight it out to the last cent and last minute.
