Which side will win in 2014? Conservatives still don’t know what to do to help their candidates get elected. A listener email provokes a podcast about how to get involved, what specifically to do and why its important. People still think social media and clever websites will win elections. Do conservatives know the difference between social media tools and real political action? Or, do people actually think protests, websites, meme’s and hanging pictures around your neck to tweet make a difference? Hint; No! Doing the unglamorous, necessary work of day to day politics, wins the race in the end. Protests, websites and social media are tools. “Boots on the ground” and money win elections. What have you done today to ensure that your guy wins on November 4th 2014? Sponsored by Baklund R&D

Winters in Minneapolis and Saint Paul go on forever. To stay sane, you have to get outside in it. During this period of time I walked around Lake of the Isles a lot, winter and summer, in the middle of the night. Missing the crunch of boots on snow? Take a winter walk with Bob Davis, meet the neighbor, check out some email, and warm up around the fire afterward. Listeners respond to the Bob Davis podcasts through email.

My only way to communicate with people was through email. So I thought I would do a ‘mail bag’ podcast. Comments from listeners via email. The education system, challenging federal largesse with litigation, “we is the problem”, the nature of the podcasts and more.
