Nuke’s News and Views

Reno, baby!

I mentioned to Mrs. Nuke that there was a big Conservative Shindig coming up in Reno in a couple of months, and wouldn’t she like to come with me.

“Hmmm, Reno? Oh yeah!”

So, I think we’re going to CLC in October.

Why?

I believe that it’s important for the conservative message be heard by as many people as possible. I believe it’s important for it be communicated in a compelling and inspiring way. I believe conservatism, and the conservative political movement is truly the last best hope for liberty, freedom, justice, and the rule of law.

Further, with regards to the New Media, the political right is getting its head handed to it by the left. CLC will be a watershed event to learn to use these powerful tools effectively.

The political left owns the internet like the right owns talk radio.

You may not agree with that statement, and the fact is, most of the right blogosphere doesn’t even realize it, much less have a clue as to why or how it happened. My own trip down the web 2.0 rabbit hole began in earnest about a year ago after reading an excellent article from Robert Cox, and came to fruition after a post from this blog was picked up by BBC’s “The Reporters.” How could a small political blog in the right blogosphere be picked up by an international news organization (which generated some staggering hit counts, btw)? The answer to that question illuminated the theme of Cox’s article for me. It was truly a “Eureka” moment.

So, I think we’re going to do everything we can to be in Reno in October. I hope you can too.

I’m trackposting this entry to my Reciprocated BlogRoll. If you’re not on this list, it’s because I’ve already heard from you since we moved into our new space here at Conservablogs.

Please adjust your blogroll to reflect the new address of Nuke’s News & Views, http://conservablogs.com/nuke.

All the best.

    Congratulations!

    Tieki Rae and I hope to attend a Conservative conference of some sort within the next year. Actually Reno isn’t too far from here (compared to many places) but this is not the year. It sounds like Conservablogs will have a great showing. :)
