"The opportunity to secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself." - Sun Tzu

You continue to fight on the wrong battlefield. The November election is gone. They have been prepping for this for over two years. Had the Democrats on the ground not become overly greedy, you wouldn't even know. You need to go on the offensive.

Step one is to descend en masse to the Georgia statehouse. You need to demand Georgia House Speaker David Ralston and Georgia Senate Pro Tempore Butch Miller call an extraordinary session to amend the Georgia voter laws to restrict mail in voting to just those physically unable to make it to the polls. They need to prevent the massive flood of carpetbagger votes that are descending on the state as we speak. These two Senate races in Georgia will be the two most expensive Senate races in the history of the country. These two races are all that stands (and Joe Manchin) between the ultra left and their plans.

Step two is to flood the legislatures of every state that reasonably has a chance of ending mail in balloting. It needs to be AB 1 and SB 1 in every state when their new sessions begin in January. Walk right up to that 14th Amendment line and stare them down. No early voting. Absentee with cause only. Voter ID. Do not back down. Draw the line in the sand.

Step three...this is the big one...attack outside the box. Make them defend flanks they didn't even know they had. Bury the court system with logical, common sense, unorthodox cases. Get creative. I have one I am considering pursuing. Find friendly judges. The left routinely judge shops here in Wisconsin. Turn the tables on them. Spread their resources thin.

I know it has become an overused talking point, but our Republic really is at stake. As it currently sits, we are a RINO...republic in name only. You cannot fight lost battles. Find a new battlefield. Bend the rules to their breaking point. Create hundreds of battlefields with one common goal. Government has always been the slowest, least efficient way of doing anything. Do not wait for friendly legislators. Be the change you want to see.

It won't be easy. It will be exceedingly difficult. Do we really have a choice?
