See-Dub offers an action plan for conservatives like me who have concluded that the Presidential election is lost no matter who wins. I still don’t know if I can bring myself to push the button for McCain, but it’s a safe bet I won’t be pushing it for Obama. So that leaves me with the downticket races because the 11th commandment in my household is Thou Shalt Vote. Part of “giving to Caesar” is our civic duty; in America that means being part of an informed electorate. I’m voting downticket whether or not I vote in the Presidential race, but it’s nice to know there are some resources available to help me identify conservative candidates who need support.
What’s a disgruntled conservative blogger to do this election?
A: open up the five hundredth “Lesser of Two Evils” should-I-actually-vote-for-that-squish-McCain debate, or
B: Look around for some actual conservatives to back?
You might not find any at the top of the ticket, but the real conservatives are out there, running for Congress all around the country. I was thinking about writing a post summarizing some of the hotter races, where some support from bloggers and local activists and small donors could make a big difference.
But then some guys went and started up a whole blog dedicated to exactly that subject: Down The Ticket.
