The question we must ask ourselves is is Liberty dead or are we to disorganized to get our message out?
Or, could it possibly be that our message resonates, but people figure our candidates will never win?
As, Penn Gilette someone I disagree with on many issues, but a Ron Paul supporter, answered to the remark, "He'll never win", with the retort "He will if we all vote for him, long live the Revolution".
The typical person doesn't believe radical Liberty oriented candidates have a chance, because they think 'they' are the only ones who believe in their message, and that the mainstream population are too selfish to care. So, they figure they will vote for the least of two evils.
The results are devastating to the Liberty of our Republic.
Two examples of this sad truth are the losses of Admit Singh (8th district) and Vern McKinley (10th district) for the Republican Party US House nominations in open primaries today.

I believe that there is hope. The nation is waking up, although it is the result of a harsh wake up call. They are learning the hard way through economic hardships from our living so far from the Constitution and sound money.
The effects of wrong governence are rearing their ugly heads. Now is the time, as it gets worse to spread the message of Liberty, so the people won't be convinced to turn to bigger government as the savior and answer to save us.

Vern McKinley didn't campaign door to door.
Amit Singh was hit at last minute with a Ron Paul stigma. It was a well done hit.
Nothwithstanding, Amit did get his message out and he did do a great job. Ellmore had run before and had name recognition.
