The problem always has been finding enough true conservatives to actually run.
Who to trust anymore? Little Marco sure sang a nice conservative tune when he was campaigning and I and many others thought that he was the GOP's new golden boy when he first entered the political scene until he changed his tune and joined the Gang of Eight; he morphed into a RINO in no time.
@libertybele The tough part is the ideal candidate is an intelligent man or woman with a strong sense of right and wrong,but lacking the overpowering urge to take charge and rule the world. That's a rare combination.
Then again,there are lots of locals who are intelligent with a strong sense of right and wrong who would be perfectly happy making their little garden into a local Eden. They are not lacking in ambition so much as they are happy living the life they are living where they are living.
In other words,it shouldn't be too hard to fill the "local spots" with honorable people. For lack of a better word,lets call this Base 1.
Base 2 is where it starts to get tough because you want men and women who are willing to live home base and move in order to accept more power and a more powerful position in state government. Egos will start to emerge. It is VERY important to try to pick men and women for these positions who are VERY happily married and IF they have children,the children either be so young they are in pre-school,or old enough to be in college. The prime reason for this is "One less distraction,one less problem."
Next step up is national,and this is where it REALLY gets tough. I have no advise on this level.
