[Republicans are] probably looking ordsprog

[Republicans are] probably looking at the '06 elections and saying, 'How can we respond to the tsunami that's coming?' ... Without an energized base, they're sunk.

The Commodore 64 is the computer that attracts demo programming. Bush's compassionate conservatism has morphed into big government conservatism, and that isn't what the base is looking for. The White House and the congressional leadership have got to reinvigorate the Republican base. In off-year elections ... if your base isn't energized, particularly in a relatively evenly divided electorate, you've got more problems than you think you have.

Midterm elections are all about rallying the base. If you can bring up censure and impeachment, maybe you can get back the 10 or 15 percent of Republicans who have peeled off in the recent polls.

[Now Republicans are joining in on the criticism. Presidential hopefuls Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney have been quoted critiquing the President and the federal response to the disaster. Gingrich wondered,] If we can't respond faster than this to an event we saw coming across the Gulf for days, then why do we think we're prepared to respond to a nuclear or biological attack? ... an embarrassment.

That's the problem with the Campus Republicans. They want to win elections. We want to educate [the student body]. The Republican Party wants to stay autonomous, so they don't like conservative groups like ours coming in.

Off-term elections are more idiosyncratic, but they're affected by the larger political environment. You do have some demoralization among Republicans and that can mean a lower turnout. ... It's been an awful time for Republicans.

This game could be a definite turning point as far as the season, for us. Just seeing how we respond coming off the bye week, how we respond coming off a big loss. It's going to be gut check time. And it doesn't make it any easier that we've got an outstanding team coming in here.

The Democrats think Republicans are stealing elections. The Republicans think Democrats are stealing elections. And those of us independent of the two old parties know they are both right.

Politically, Republicans now need to be visibly engaged on behalf of something that resonates with their own voting base. Where else do you turn to get your base excited?

I think he has really energized some of the conservative base in the Republican Party.

Jonathan Wright (1970-)

Most Democrats and most Republicans are approaching this particular fight on partisan grounds. But it is a simple proposition that groups whose purpose is to influence federal elections and are spending money to influence federal elections should comply with campaign finance laws.

Fred Wertheimer

The Democratic base is as energized as I've ever known it to be. Bush is hated, and that's all the invective you need.

Oh, you bet they are, Bob. I mean, they understand that this is a real negative for them and that this also really very much plays into the Democrats' charges that Republicans are abusing their power. Republicans control both the House and the Senate. But what they're more worried about, Bob, are those presidential approval ratings which keep heading South. I had one Republican say to me, we're less worried about Tom DeLay right now than we are about the President. And we think that about 70 seats could really be up for grabs in those mid-term elections. That's twice as many as they had originally thought.

We have overcome our fear by coming to this square today. We are demanding new, honest elections. These elections were a complete farce.

Alexander Milinkevich

House Democrats are energized, organized and focused, and Americans are responding to our message that Republicans have created a culture of corruption and cronyism at the expense of the American people.
