...................... now you've got it. I have been silent about the SCC results because any detailed discussion would require public disclosure of the "play book" and other confidential information. I'd rather not provide the Dems with any intelligence about our activities; they seem to have experienced sufficient success without it. ... The SCC has been privately very concerned about the direction the Republican Party has been headed for the last few years, but simply powerless to do anything but start a civil war in an election year to address our concerns, which would cause a disastrous defeat. Well, the downward trend became decimation and the disastrous defeat we feared but all hoped to avoid is upon us. ... more specific changes will become much more visible in the next three or so weeks. This is a comprehensive, top to bottom reformation of the Republican Party in Iowa.
