VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS: THE WAY FORWARDInvite People Into the GOP; Don't Exclude Them Sunday, Dec 02, 2007 - 12:05 AM By DAVID LAMPOTIMES-DISPATCH GUEST COLUMNIST
ALEXANDRIA This weekend, the Republican Party of Virginia held its annual retreat, the Huffman Advance, in Crystal City. The gathering presented members of the GOP with a unique opportunity to reflect on our losses in the 2007 election cycle - which resulted in a Democratic majority in the State Senate for the first time in 12 years. Those losses were a continuation of the sharp reversals the party has suffered since it was swept into power just seven years ago. As the state continues to trend blue, the time for reflection on where the party has been going for the past few years is long overdue.

Quotable Quotes |
Richmond Times-Dispatch Friday, February 17, 2006 Barry Goldwater, speaking in 1981: "I'm frankly sick and tired of the political preachers across this country telling me as a citizen that, if I want to be a moral person, I must believe in A, B, C, or D . . . .I am even more angry as a legislator who must endure the threats of every religious group who thinks it has some God-granted right to control my vote on every roll call in the Senate." |
