Romney caused the California GOP’s losses in 2012. All head and no
heart, Romney never wanted to run. Instead, he helped drag down every
Republican into defeat.

Romney highlighted the GOP’s “bland” problem, not their “brand”
problem. The Republican Party must be brash and bold. For example, Republicans
must lead now on school choice. Public sector union-cronyism is the state’s
biggest foe, especially in public education. Republicans favor freedom and
choice. With a school choice bill, Republicans can expose the bullying
corruption of the Democratic Party and public sector unions.

The California GOP elected Jim Brulte as Chairman. Unlike Romney,
Brulte is a campaigner and a gainer since high school. Brulte’s strategy to
bring the California GOP out of debt is a good idea, his focus on grassroots campaigning
is better, and his commitment to contesting every race, local or statewide, is
essential. His drive will help the GOP thrive.

Republicans must do more than vote. They need to take note and
tote their platform everywhere. Asians, Hispanics, and African-Americans are
conservative, but someone needs to invite them into the “Big Tent”. Republicans
are the “minority party” now. When leaders reach out to minorities, the GOP
will regain the majority.
