Entry: Buchanan & Lukacs--Getting Personal Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/buchanan_lukacs_getting_personal#28590 Post contents: G.S., When I was toiling in the GOP for one year last year trying to gain some street cred, so to speak, as a Ron Paul supporter, I went to several Republican events. Our retched Governor’s Fish Fry for one. When I would talk these events up at our Meet-up groups, I was occasionally asked, "what is the point?" My answer was always to normalize us. Show up there proudly wearing your Ron Paul buttons and shirts looking as normal and GOPesq as you can. Put real faces on the Ron Paul supporters. I am now happily out of that mess and supporting the Constitution Party again, but my thoughts are similar here. Paleoconservatism needs real faces and a real presence inside the Beltway. A presence that distinguishes us from the movement conservatives of the world. The entire Beltway thinks all conservatives are war-loving money grubbers. The key is that those inside the Beltway must be incorruptible, hearty souls. Sent at: 2008 12 02
