The Conservative Republicans of Madison met at 19:00 at the Cancun Restaurant. After meeting first at the The Mark Green for Governor Headquarter in order to stuff envelopes, make phone calls, and to receive yard signs, what not, four members and Carol Skorupan (of the Republican Party Dane County who came to advise us on the Fall campaign) met for the monthly meeting. The honorable Steddy was scribing via Instant Messaging since he found leaks in his canoe hence he was stuck in the flooded Madisan outback.

§ The Instant Minutes §

Slightly Older than a Teen: I stopped by the Republican HQ and picked up signs...and now I will sign up for phone calls for the 72 hour blitz before the vote (Get Out The Vote)

Steddy: Was anybody taking notes at meeting?

Slightly Older than a Teen: ahhh...no! We talked about that too. That's why we need YOU.

Slightly Older than a Teen: like: We gotta keep Steddy, man, he's the only one that does any work for this group. and we all love your reports!

Steddy: Anyway, keep posting what you recall about the meeting then I will do my magic at the weblog. :)

Slightly Older than a Teen: LOL

Slightly Older than a Teen: The debate between Tammy and Dave are coming up -- so we should get there early and fill the seats that Tammy's mob usually gets (you know...the students and non-working classes.) Six debates between Tammy Baldwin and Dave Magnum are scheduled.

Send Dave Magnum instead of Tammy Baldwin to Washington!
Save Wisconsin's 2nd District

Slightly Older than a Teen: Tony brought Magnum T-Shirts.. and so Dave put his on over his shirt. I had a large but I gave it to Andy... the rest of the shirts were like XL and XXL... so I declined to take one

FL: Carol suggested that a strong pro-Magnum presence at the debates would be a help. We need to get there early and grab seats up front. If not, Dave will have to debate surrounded by crazies. (Think of it as an act of kindness.) If you plan to attend, let me know and give me your t-shirt size (if you need a shirt). Dave and Andy I believed are good as are Shari and myself.

Steddy: no polo Shirts?

Slightly Older than a Teen: no....afraid not

FL has log-off. Your message will be delivered when they come back online.

Slightly Older than a Teen: We talked about ... the candidates'... and why we haven't seen any Tammy ads or Signs around...like...what's that all about?

Slightly Older than a Teen: Carol ran down their list of priorities...that candidates and the issues on the ballot...

Make Wisconsin Great Again!

Slightly Older than a Teen: we talked about the marriage definition act [Scribe's note: the Marriage Amendment referendum.] ... Carol said... and then Andy too... that the
second part is what keeps them from going with the [referendum]. 

Steddy: yea, they are trying to scared the voters into thinking the second paragraph
will put gays into camps 

Slightly Older than a Teen: ok, Tony relayed to us how his pastor was for the Marriage [referendum] b/c his daughter can't get her child on the daddy's med insurance... Tony kinda wondered why don't they just get married?

Steddy: Lol ... How will Marriage Amendment do that? But his pastor is voting yes so never mind. ... This week there is a discussion group at Marquette University: Is the Wisconsin Constitution Obsolete?. They are preparing re-writing the Wisconsin constitution. The people who wish for a new basic law are claiming the legislature is passing too many constitution referenda and the current constitution gives too much power to the people who do not know enough how to run the government like the bureaucrats in Madison do. LOL. We need to pass the Marriage Amendment to let the so-called reformers know what the people
want! You can bet such a convention will write a long basic law with every modern "right" professed by the radical left-wing who took and kept control the Democratic Party since the Sixties.

Slightly Older than a Teen: and then... we talked about how Republicans get creamed (no pun
intended) when they're caught with their sex life exposed.. but Democrats can keep right on going.. and re-elected!

Steddy: On all Instant Messaging programs the user can BAN anybody who is contacting them. Did the congressional pages ban Mark Foley, were they playing a practical joke on him which got out of hand, and were any messages doctored?

Slightly Older than a Teen: Oh, also, Carol went through a list of needs before the vote: yard
signs, phone banks on Wed evenings, literature drops on Saturday... with multiple candidates combining efforts 

Steddy: Ken Mehlman at gop.com sent an e-mail out announcing Rightroots. Website to give conservatives the power to contribute directly to the most competitive Republican campaigns. 

Slightly Older than a Teen: and public events that they want to be at to hand out stuff... football games,... Magnum showing up at High School football games..

Slightly Older than a Teen: Apparently, MATC (Madison Area Technical College) has a Republican Student group that's pretty active and they have Meet and Greet parties are
informal for discussing issues kind of like what we do at our meetings. 

Slightly Older than a Teen: Carol said they will send out an e-mail to alert us to an upcoming Meet and Greet at Vasquires on the 12th of October.

Meeting adjourned after it was agreed to meet at Mark Green's campaign spot next month (Election day is the same day as our monthly meet) with the understanding SOME of us will have done some volunteer work for him.

Slightly Older than a Teen: damntake I remembered more than I thought

Steddy: Okay

Slightly Older than a Teen: okay

Steddy: These minutes have been submitted via instant messaging astoundingly without the assistance by any congressional pages. 

Send Dave Magnum instead of Tammy
Baldwin to Washington!
