On Wednesday, March 20th, The Big Jolly Politics had a blog posted by Ed Hubbard, in which he wrote about the "Growth and Opportunity Project" and one thing The Republican National Committee wrote it in. This project outlined the weakness of the republican party, and suggests for them to better themselves. The main thing Hubbard wrote about was a part of the project that talked about the republicans needing to stop talking to themselves. In this blog he puts in his thoughts about what that part meant him, bringing up when that must have started happening, and that without 9/11 W. Bush would probably not have been elected a 2nd time to office. Hubbard leaves quotations that show the exact words for certain sections instead of paraphrasing, which is great and shows credibility, he even brings up that he is republican, which seems obvious while reading this, because he brings up the problems without attacking the republican party, and words things nicely and puts understanding towards the situation. This blog was probably towards over republicans, so that they can see, and understand the problem and the meaning of it, in case they already didn't know. Hubbard stays very reasonable throughout his entire blog and brings up some good points, and he doesn't go overboard at all, which makes it a lot better to read. When he brings up the fact that the republican's need to start going to neighborhoods and starts talking to them, about themselves, and not just leave it, to start talking to others and not to attack over ideological purity, is when i start agreeing with him greatly and a lot of the things he brings up seem correct. Hubbard continues this for another two paragraphs, and each part is well written and connects with each other in a very understanding way, and that is what makes this blog great, and definitely worth reading.
