A New Age of American Politics

 American politics has entered a new age. All that has gone before-polls, historical trends, message, issues, candidate quality, traditional get-out-the-vote efforts, candidate debates, voter persuasion-means almost nothing and is extremely insignificant. The only thing that truly matters now is a "ballots out, ballots in" machine.

The Virginia results blunted my skepticism and made me over confident

  • Recent success leading to overconfidence is the answer.
  • Coming out of Virginia, the conclusions-the wrong conclusions-were that we could beat whatever Democrats did in 2020 with a great focus on mid- to low-propensity voters, drive them to the polls, and overcome the rigging and manipulation.

If conservatives and Republicans want to win again, we had better adopt the only-ballots-matter approach at least in the short term or die.

  • Unless we figure out our ballot-out, ballot-in machine, I don't see us winning the White House or much of anything else in 2024.
  • So I'm going to figure out how to beat the Left at its own game in 2023 and 2024.
