The entirety of my political and campaign experience has been in primaries and until last night, all the races were defeats. It was discouraging watching the establishment betray the conservative cause and put elitist RINOs into power. The Herman Cain race was probably the hardest pill to swallow of them all. 2006 is a different story. Lee Hawkins won the state senate seat being vacated by Casey Cagle who also won his race to become the next Lt. Governor. As I have mentioned before, the biggest threat to the GOP is not just from RINOs. To truly save the GOP and the conservative movement, we must reject the careerists and elitists who are willing to sell their souls for their personal gain. We need citizen legislators who put the conservative cause above their personal interests. Lee Hawkins exemplifies what a true citizen legislator in the mold our founding fathers envisioned.

Lee Hawkins won his race because he and a dedicated group of volunteers walked neighborhoods every Saturday, Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday and talked to fellow citizens on their front porches about the issues.
He ran on eliminating the state income tax and implementing the Georgia Fairtax and a Tax Payer’s Bill of Rights. I have to say, it sure feels great to finally see all the hard work pay off and the good guys like Mark Harris, Lee Hawkins and Casey Cagle winning elections. We must keep up the fight to Save The GOP. As Herman Cain would always say, “the only way for evil to prosper is for good men to do nothing.” Keep up the fight.
