I like the map. A couple 2016 targets right here:

NC as always poorly understood and mostly under the radar. We have built a liberty/tea coalition like nowhere else in America. 2013 will be an amazing year. I love how 5 years of incremental but real progress is labeled a "Establishment Victory" lmao!

Breaking people's brains is so much more fun when you come blatantly out of nowhere (as far as they know).

Other than the portrayal of the NC situation I thought it was a great primer for anyone that isn't a political hawk.

They left out Colorado...

There is a battle brewing here too. We'll see what happens at the State Central Committee Meeting early March.

Well, to be fair of course our NC buildup is almost entirely below the radar at this point. An objective analysis of the "Battle of the Bulge" would show a decisive German victory -- up until the point that we took out the fuel depots and started annihilating them. So the map isn't really inaccurate regarding NC, it's just missing some very, very important data that would tell them we aren't nearly as bad off as it looks....

For instance, the NC establishment has determined (accurately, IMHO) that Romney won swing-state NC because we dug in learned our parliamentary procedure, and managed to FORCE them to treat us fairly in 2012 whether they wanted to or not. Then, turns out that NC was the ONLY swing State who treated the Ron Paul people fairly, and then it turns out that NC is the only swing state Obama lost.

Hmm.

Now the establishment figures the key to Republican resurgence must be the NC model, and what's different about NC? We specifically INcluded the Paul people instead of specifically EXcluding them. Since that's pretty much the ONLY thing we did differently than other States, guess what the narrative is from the NC GOP Establishment?

"Ermgawd! We have to open up to these guys and start putting them in leadership!!"

There is now a not-that-small cabal of establishmentarian leadership helping push my candidacy for NCGOP Vice Chair, and I am an adamant Ron Paul supporter. I don't think there's anything like this in any other State. Even where liberty Republicans have basically taken over, it's still all angst and fighting. I'm predicting that by 2015 the NCGOP will be majority constitutionalist/liberty/tea, and the transition will be smooth, happy, and doggone near completely angst-free.

By 2017 we will have a 70% Paul-type Party in NC and even the old guard establishment will still be around and happy about it.

We've really done amazing things here, and in large part because we took a different route than elsewhere in the US. I believe that 10 years from now, NC will be seen as the 'model' for a Paul/Constitutionalist takeover of a State GOP that doesn't alienate but the ~3% of Republican activists who seem the hate the Constitution...and we're better off without that ~3% anyway, so win-win!!

Nicely done.

Yea they missed a lot of stuff but it really isn't their fault. Most of us are keeping our battles, victories and sensitives plans on the down low.

It would be nice to have a map to detail whats going on but I guess its not wise to let the other side know where we're attacking.

Did the reinforcements really sail down from Maine?

The arrow makes it very clear that they traveled by sea.

LOL!

uh, kinda.

This is where the RNC Chairman battle was fought. Between Priebus and the guy from Maine. We couldn't get the other fellow nominated, but Priebus had to cut off his own foot to do it, and now he's forced to make concessions. Win or lose, the rules change battle in Los Angeles this spring will a lot easier because to the force and pressure we applied here during the RNC Chair challenge.

I am sure some came by car, others by airplane, and even a few maybe by boat.

ETA - I just realized about an hour ago that they colored the NC battle as a 'draw' instead of an establishment victory, so it's more accurate than I at first thought.

I'd say 'by rail' is at least ten times more likely than 'by boat'. The Silver Meteor may not be what it was when the Seaboard Coast Line ran it, but it's still the most civilized way to travel.
