HAVE: Mature Hydrangas!
This is my first post ever so first of all hi everyone! Down to business: I have 2 large hydrangas, not sure what color but very healthy! Also have mature 11 foot arbirvitaes that I will dig out. Let me know if anything sparks interest!
How ironic! I have gone nuts with the garden since we moved into our lake Stevens home this January, same thing! Well I'm looking for english laurel (yes I have room for it to grow into a tree), any hardy tropical like windmill palms, purple flax, purple cannas ect.
Hi Hailey. :)
It looks like I won't be able to make this one, even though I really want to, but if anyone sees anything they like at my exchange page here, I can probably arrange for Hailey to bring it, and you can trade directly with her, since she's my daughter.
I also told her to bring cookies since she's just starting out. You still going to do some baking Hailey? Save a few for Pop. :)

Hey What up ... Haven't seen you all in so long. So fill me in, I hear mature hydreangeas I'm in the mix? Have a missed the date or am I hitting it right on ??? I would love the hydrangeas.. and or the aborvites???
I have lots 2 trade but haven't made a list for a long long time!!! I have a couple of large valunteers that look like laurels. I have other things like hostas(mini's) and a lot of perennials. some hydreangeas starts of different varieties lmk~Thanx Frani
Frani, you have large laurels eh? How large we talkin? Digable large? Or need-an-excavator large? I was lookin for something along the established lines. I have 2 large hydrangas, I pruned them 2/3 back as they hadn't been maintained in a long time from the previous homeowner. At their current state, they could even probably be divided into 2, 3, or 4 depending on the root ball pattern. It's exciting to see the first green shoots on them, almost time for spring!!

Surrendering Guaranteed Indian Land for Rations From: bernhard1848 By 1875 the remaining sovereign Indian tribes were decimated by the relentless hordes of army soldiers; loss of food and shelter, and kept constantly on the move and in fear of surprise attacks, they ultimately preferred the detestable reservation life to cold and hunger. Sherman and Sheridanâs total-war strategy against the American Indian had been validated. Bernhard Thuersam, www.Circa1865.com Surrendering Guaranteed Indian Land for Rations âThe national stage of the United States in 1877 held a great variety of actors and actions. The values of the Indians opposed the values of white men. The purposes of farmer and banker, of factory worker and industrialist, of railroad president and merchant, often clashed. [This era saw] industrial bureaucracies such as Standard Oil [clash with] the hunting cultures of some Indians. Crazy Horse was a great war chief of the Oglala Sioux. About 35 years old in 1877, he had been the leader of t ...
Black Elk's Vision [The following is taken from the book "Black Elk Speaks", by John G. Neihardt (New York: Washington Square Press, 1972), originally published in 1932. The book is Neihardt's recreation in English of the oral history that Black Elk, a medicine man (or "shaman," of the Oglala Sioux Indians, recounted for him in the Sioux language in 1931. These are selected chapters and sections of chapters that deal most directly with Black Elk's visions and this ritual enactment of them for his tribe.] Chapter 3: The Great Vision What happened after that until the summer I was nine years old is not a story. There were winters and summers, and they were good; for the Wasichus had made their iron road along the Platte and traveled there. This had cut the bison herd in two, but those that stayed in our country with us were more than could be counted, and we wandered without trouble in our land. Now and then the voices would come back when I was out alone, like someone calling me, but what they wanted me to ...
The Democratic Party in South Dakota suffers from one singular problem: We do not support Democratic candidates like they need to be supported. Without a viable mechanism to do so, all the policy, the bridge-building, etc., is practically useless. Without supporting people for the most local of offices (political offices or not), we do not develop a talent pool of those we can mentor through the various levels of government. I believe this even has repercussions for the types of Republicans that end up in office, because Republicans only have sheer numbers and dollars on their side. They aren't organized. If they were, our good, staunch, moderate Republicans wouldn't be forced to vote for crazies like Phil Jensen and Betty Olson. Yesterday in Rapid City, at Shelter 50, a group of folks organized by Bajun R. Mavalwalla, a retired military veteran and political strategist not from South Dakota, came together. At the table we had staunch pillars of the Pennington County Democrats, we had a large group of fol ...
"The American Indian is of the soil, whether it be the region of forests, plains, pueblos, or mesas.

Lakota Sioux demonstrators protest plans at Badlands National Park by George Lauby (North Platte Bulletin) On Wednesday, residents of the Pine Ridge Reservation are expected to gather at Wounded Knee to protest a planned federal park arrangement that they say will strip them of their deeded land. Wednesday is the anniversary of the battle at the Little Big Horn between General George Custer, the Northern Cheyenne and the Lakota Sioux, a synchronicity that protestors hope is not lost on the public. According to a statement issued June 20, the Oglala Sioux and Lakota Sioux of the reservation have been told the federal government will be taking land that comprises the âSouth Unit of the Badlands National Park.â According to the statement, the tribe would also lose the income from grazing allotments on the land and income from the north gate fees of the Badlands National Park. Changes in the management of the Badland National Parkâs south unit have been planned for several years by the National Park Ser ...

***Breaking News in Indian Country*** Pine Ridge Reservation has passed a resolution banning TransCanada Pipeline official, Phil Fontaine, from entering it's territory. As a Sundancer who travels to Pine Ridge for ceremony each year, I have the utmost respect for the Oglala Sioux people. Each year, I've seen first hand a very high percentage of community members living in dire straights and poverty. I've also witnessed the people's strength and sense of traditional values, their hilarious and uplifting humor, and their love and respect for the land and ancestral teachings. Reading about the community rejecting and firmly opposing a pipeline from ripping through their territory (although they can gain temporary $) didn't come as a huge shock to me as the Oglala Sioux have always stood to protect their land, water, children and way of life. In case you forgot or didn't know, Pine Ridge community members have fought and died for their treaties and land. During US Govt land disputes, respectable leader and Ch ...

More Proof: "You have noticed that everything as Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles, and everything tries to be round. The Sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are all the stars. The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nest in circles, for theirs is the same religion as ours. Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves." - Black Elk Oglala Sioux Holy Man, year: 1868-1937.

Everything That Is. Red Cloud was the most significant American Indian leader in the 19th centuryâand arguably in the history of the North American continent. Not only was he the sole warrior-chief to defeat the United States in a warânot in a single battle, but in the eponymous Red Cloudâs Warâbut his historical victory wouldâve dramatically changed the lives of Indian Americans for the better had the ensuing treaty been honored by the U.S. government in 1868. Red Cloud ascended from humble beginnings to the leadership of the most powerful tribe on the Western Plains, the Oglala Sioux. He also became the first American Indian to form a coalition of Native Peoples to fend off the encroaching whites. At the height of his power, Red Cloudâs âempireâ spanned one-fifth of the contiguous United States, running east from Minnesota to the Rocky Mountains and fanning south from Montana and the Dakota Territory through Wyoming and Nebraska and edging into modern-day Utah and Colorado.

Grandfather, Great Spirit, once more behold me on earth and lean to hear my feeble voice. You lived first, and you are older than all need, older than all prayer. All things belong to you - the two - legged, the four - legged, the wings of the air, and all green things that live. You have set the powers of the four quarters of the earth to cross each other. You have made me cross the good road, and the road of difficulties, and where they cross, the place is holy. Day in, day out, forevermore, you are the life of things. Black Elk ~ Oglala Sioux My grandfathers have always heard my prayers and they will continue to do so, for I have lived my life in a good way.

This morning I want to talk about my granddaughter Arianna Steele, 12 years old. Arianna lives in Pine Ridge village with her grandparents and her father.

I fought to make sure every Porcupine District member received the Salazar money. This money is blood money cheated out of our ancestors in the rough figure of 11 billion dollars and settled for 3.4 billion dollars. My granddaughter didn't receive her share of the Salazar money because she lived in Pine Ridge village. Her grand parents are original Porcupine District members. Arianna's representatives of Pine Ridge village didn't speak up for children like Arianna so they are the district that didn't get any personal checks to spend.

I did not know at that time that was the end of many things. When I look back now from this high hill of my old age, I still see the butchered women and children, heaped and scattered along the ravine in a zig-zag pattern, as clearly as I saw them with my own eyes as a young man. And I can see that something else died with them up there on the bloody snow, and was buried in the blizzard. There died the dream of a people. It was a beautiful dream. The circle of the nation is broken and its fragments are scattered. The circle has no center and the sacred tree is dead. Black Elk - Oglala Sioux
Complaint on Oglala Sioux Tribe Secretary Rhonda Two Eagle We the undersigned Porcupine District Members were waiting for our Salazar checks and gathered at the Porcupine District CAP Office. When OST secretary Rhonda Two Eagle Requested the Public Safety Officers to forcibly remove everyone from the Porcupine District CAP office, for rioting and protesting. Had OST President Brian Brewer not insisted that he be arrested instead of the Oyate, many innocent Elders families and children could have been injured. We file this complaint based on the Oglala Sioux Tribe personnel policies and procedural manual , Sec XI. OFFENSE 13: â Creating or being involved in workplace violenceâ.
Gathering today at Wounded Knee to remember the Wounded Knee Massacre of 1890 on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation where Oglala Sioux Tribe is based. PHOTO Courtesy: Native News Online
123 yrs ago today (12/ 29/1890) The U.S. Army killed approximately 300 Oglala Sioux at Wounded Knee. The 7th Cavalry fired their artillery amidst mostly unarmed women, children, and fleeing men: 18 soldiers received Congressional Medals of Honor for their "bravery.â -- remembering, and knowing the struggle for justice for the indigenous peoples of this land continues taking a moment on this day and rededicating myself to solidarity in that struggle

Chief Red Cloud--Cayuga. biography A political leader and a fierce warrior, Red Cloud, chief of the Oglala Sioux, fought unsuccessfully to save his people and their land from being seized by whites. Born in 1822 in what was then Nebraska Territory, Red Cloud was named Mahpiua-Luta at birth. He became a chief after showing leadership and bravery in battles against the Oglala's traditional enemies, the Pawnees, Crows, Utes, and Shoshones. He also divided the Oglala by killing the rival of his uncle, another tribal leader. When white settlers discovered gold in Montana in the early 1860's, they began to build a road from Fort Laramie in present-day Wyoming to the gold fields. They also constructed a series of forts to protect the road, which became known as the Bozeman Trail. Starting in 1865, Red Cloud led the Oglala and the Cheyenne in a war against white soldiers, miners, and settlers on the Bozeman Trail. After a two-year fight, Red Cloud and his soldiers forced the U.S. to abandon its forts and stop bui ...
Every sunrise is a sacred event and every day is holy, for the light comes from the Great Spirit. And you must also remember that all the people who are standing on this earth are sacred and should be treated as such. Quote by Black Elk - Oglala Sioux
Early career USA lost a war to {Red Cloud}..! Look it up.. 1868 "Much of Red Cloud's early life was spent at war, first and most often against the neighboring Pawnee and Crow, and at other times, against other Oglala. Red Cloud proved his medicine was powerful at age 16 when he survived a near-fatal arrow wound in his ribs. He counted coup* more than 80 times, and coaxed 4,000 warriors from various tribes to ally with him against the white men. In 1841, Red Cloud killed one of his uncle's primary rivals; the slaying caused dissension among the Oglala that persisted for years to come. He gained enormous prominence within the Lakota nation for his leadership in territorial wars against the Pawnees, Crows, Utes, and Shoshones. Young Red Cloud developed a reputation for both bravery and cruelty. His stature among the Oglala Sioux rose early, his having acquired a reputation as a fierce warrior and a man of pronounced ruthlessness to enemies of his people, particularly in campaigns against the Pawnees. The Boz ...

Ray Cayton This is how COWARDS fight wars! Join us and share: all of the animals used for food, clothing and shelter and then give men, women and children food, blankets and medicines with diseases in them because they can't fight like men! The TRUE Founding fathers of "America" were apart of the tribes that have been here for centuries! If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this picture is worth many thousands of bison. This photo from the 1870s shows a man proudly standing in front of a mountain of tens of thousands of bison skulls - an iconic American species that was systematically slaughtered by the millions as European Americans settled the west. The US Army actively endorsed the wholesale slaughter of these animals for two main reasons: to remove any competition with cattle, and to starve Native American tribes who greatly depended on the bison for food. Without the bison, the resisting tribes of the Great Plains would either be forced to leave or die of starvation. "Upon suffering beyond su ...

He is wearing a large Oglala Tribal flag on his jacket, and starts some small talk with the other men standing there at the restroom. 4 Rosebud Sioux men and the Oglala Sioux finish at the same time and the 4 Rosebud Sioux men walk to the sink and start washing their hands. The Oglala Sioux starts to walk out the door and one of the Rosebud men comments... "In Rosebud Country, we wash our hands after using the restroom!!" The other 3 Rosebud Sioux men nod in agreement as the Oglala Sioux man says. "In the Oglala Country, we don't use the restroom on our hands!!" !:)

Black Elk Speaks ~ "Then all at once great happiness overcame me and it all took hold of me right there. This was to remind me to get to work at once and help to bring my people back into the sacred hoop, that they might again walk the red road in a sacred manner pleasing to the Powers of the Universe that are One Power. I remembered how the spirits had taken me to the centre of the earth and shown me the good things, and how my people should prosper. I remembered how the Six Grandfathers had told me that through their power I should make my people live and the holy tree should bloom. I believed my vision was coming true at last, and happiness overcame me." ~ Black Elk, Oglala Sioux
Like attracts like. If we give up, so will others. If we cry, so will they. But if we decide this is a new beginning, others will take courage. We influence other people. Our attitudes send out ripples of feeling - like the scent of flowers that floats on air currents. What we think and say sets the stage for what is to happen. We can change our minds, our words, our attitudes, and we stop crying. We act like our prayers are already answered and take steps to show we believe it. When the early morning sun breaks through the far side of the woods, the dark places are lighted and much healing takes place. And so it is with us. ~ Black Elk, Oglala Sioux (1863 - 1950)

Oglala Sioux, National Park Service draft legislation to create first tribal national park ^ja
In the Badlands, a tribe helps buffalo make a comeback By Juliet Eilperin BADLANDS NATIONAL PARK, S.D. â Buffalo stroll undisturbed, pausing occasionally to wallow in the grass and caked dirt, while prairie dogs yip intermittently as they dive into their holes and pop out again to survey the landscape. This northern stretch of the park, known as Sage Creek Wilderness, is what the Northern Great Plains used to look like. Several miles away, in the parkâs 133,300-acre South Unit, located on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, the scene is more barren. The U.S. Army forced more than 800 Oglala Sioux families to leave their homes here in 1942 so that part of the reservation could be turned into a bombing range. The land has partially recovered, but the bison have yet to return. That could soon change. The Oglala Sioux and National Park Service are drafting legislation to create the first tribal national park â giving the tribe the right to manage and operate the lands â in an effort to bring buffalo ba ...
"But in the Indian Spirit the land is still vested; it will be until other men are able to divine and meet its rhythm. Men must be born and reborn to belong. Their bodies must be formed of the dust of their forefathers' bones." -- Luther Standing Bear, OGLALA SIOUX It is said when we walk on the Earth, we are walking on our ancestors and our unborn children. This is the relationship Native People have with the Earth. It is this relationship which gives insight into the Earth's rhythm and heartbeat and creates the feeling of belonging. If you feel you belong to something, you'll treat it with respect. If you feel you are above something, you'll treat it with disrespect. Indian Spirituality is tied to the Earth. We belong to the Earth along with all other creatures on the Earth. We must align to this realization. Great Spirit, today, teach me to respect the Earth Mother.
Training began with children who were taught to sit still and enjoy it. They were taught to use their organs of smell, to look when there was apparently nothing to see, and to listen intently when all seemingly was quiet. A child that cannot sit still is a half-developed child. -Luther Standing Bear, OGLALA SIOUX, 1868-1937
Siouan language speakers may have originated in the lower Mississippi River region and then migrated to or originated in the Ohio Valley. They were agriculturalists and may have been part of the Mound Builder civilization during the 9thâ12th centuries CE.[1] In the late 16th and early 17th centuries, Dakota-Lakota-Nakota speakers lived in the upper Mississippi Region in present day Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas. Conflicts with Anishnaabe and Cree peoples pushed the Lakota west onto the Great Plains in the mid- to late-17th century.[1] Early Lakota history is recorded in their Winter counts (Lakota: wanÃyetu wówapi), pictorial calendars painted on hides or later recorded on paper. The Battiste Good winter count records Lakota history back to 900 CE, when White Buffalo Calf Woman gave the Lakota people the White Buffalo Calf Pipe.[3] Around 1730, Cheyenne people introduced the Lakota to horses,[4] called Å¡uÅkawakaÅ ("dog [of] power/mystery/wonder"). After their adoption of horse culture ...

wow. folks on Pine Ridge are going to have the chance to vote whether alcohol should be allowed on the reservation. at least some of the conflict stems from a standoff that has been taking place for several months now around the the town of Whiteclay, Nebraska. Its a town on the Nebraska side of the border from Pine Ridge, a town with a population listed in the last census of '14' that sells a reported 10,000 cans of beer a day.

BEECHER ISLAND PRESENTATION - JUNE 23, 2-4 pm On the 17th of September, 1869, was fought the hardest battle between the white men and the plains Indians in the annals of the West. Fought on the Arickaree fork of the Republican River, fifty-one scouts and frontiersmen under the command of Lieutenant George A. Forsyth stood off, on a little sandbar in the river, the combined forces of the Northern Cheyenne, Arapaho and Oglala Sioux for nine days. They lost more than one third their own number in killed and wounded, while the Indian loss was many times as great Join The Phillips County Museum as Dave Belke gives an informative presentation on this famous battle that took place not far from Wray, Colorado.

I might be late to the posting party about Bryan Brewer being arrested. Although, he was released. I get that he wants the beer delivery workers to notdrop off their shipments. I, personally think that alcohol should be legalized on this reservation. I don't drink, but i'm sure the tax, is money that this reservation could use. I don't know much about it. I don't know if the Oglala Sioux president is trying to start a movement, or not. But an Oglalaactivist, Olowan Martinez had said: "They probably assum that if the take out our leadership we'll leave." A movement does take a leader to start, but you cannot rely on the leader to keep it going. When starting a movement, the followers must be welcomed by the leader as equal. So that they must have the willpower to keep the movement going strong. Leadership is overglorified. Sure, the President of our tribe was first, and he will get all of the credit .. But if was really the first follower(s) the lone President into a leader. I really don't know why i'm pos ...

Hau Kathleen, Lila pila miya (much thanks) for compassion and for being a woman of action. Our family is currently living in a very small 30 year trailer house, which we are thankful as it is a roof over our heads. However, it is in no way suitable for residential living, but is much rather a temporary shelter to prevent us from homeless. As you may be aware, the Oglala Sioux Tribe actually took a reservation house on a flatbed to Washington, DC last month to show the federal government and American citizens the status of deplorable housing conditions here on the Pine Ridge Reservation. This demonstration of need reflects the insufficient funding the federal government provides to our people. According to their numbers, there are currently 6,000 families in need of housing. This may not improve for years with the governments recent budget cuts, which sadly, impact our people more than most as we are already in the poorest county in the nation.

Six Sioux Tribes are banding together to develop the largest wind power production facility in the United States. The Midwest has been called âthe Saudi Arabia of wind power,â and the northern Great Plains has enough wind resources to meet the entire energy demand of the United States several times over. Six South Dakota Sioux Tribes â the Cheyenne River, Crow Creek, Oglala, Rosebud, Sisseton Wahpeton, and Yankton Tribes â have decided to pool their considerable wind power resources to create the largest utility-grade wind installation in the country â a Project funded by $1.75-3 Billion in bonds issued through a multi-Tribal power authority.

"Is not the sky a father and the earth a mother, and are not all living things with feet or wings or roots their children?" Black Elk (Oglala Sioux)
I know of no species of plant, bird, or animal that were exterminated until the coming of the white man. The white man considered natural animal life upon this continent, as "pest." There is no word in the Lakota vocabulary with the English meaning of this word...[the Indian] was...kin to all living things and he gave to all creatures equal rights with himself [To the white man] the worth and right to live were his. Forest were mowed down, the buffalo were exterminated, the beaver driven to extinction and his wonderfully constucted dams dynamited. Springs, streams, and lakes that lived no longer ago than my boyhood have dried, and a whole people harassed to degradation and death. The white man has become the symbol of extinction for all things natural to this continent. Between him and the animal there is no rapport.--Luther Standing Bear, Oglala Sioux, 1868-1937
I'm not big on gun ownership (though I think we all should have the right), but the message in this billboard is too important to overlook. Think about the people our duly elected and appointed representatives have lied to through the years. The Lakota and Oglala Sioux. The Choctaw. The Chiricahua Apache. The Hawaiians. Think the government won't lie to you too, if it suits the needs of someone in power? Ha! I have oceanfront property in Kansas for sale. Message me now!
(Tashunka Witco, Tashunca-Uitco, "his horse is crazy"). These are the words of a great Indian hero. Crazy Horse was born in 1844 as an Oglala Sioux. He was the son of an Oglala medicine man of the same name and his Brule wife, the sister of Spotted Tail. His first name was Curly, after his father, but after his first war-deed at a young age gave him the name Crazy Horse. He had light skin and hair with a very quiet manner. He was not half white as some say, nor was he a captured white boy as others say, many Indians of his tribe were just like him. He also had unusual spiritual powers which others called him "Strange One". Crazy Horse's real heroism came in 1876, when he led the Sioux to the Battle of the Rosebud and the Little Big Horn. On June 17, they conquered General Crook and his men. Then eight days later along with 2500 other Sioux and Cheyenne at the Little Big Horn. Some say it lasted only ten minutes as Crazy Horse wiped out General Custer and his men. Crazy Horse finally, voluntarily surrender ...
A group of 10 fair housing advocates from the Oglala Sioux Tribe transported the house to the National Mall in a demonstration that was dubbed The Trail of Hope for Indian Housing. Throughout the day, curious tourists and student groups wandered by and snapped photos, and in the afternoon North Dakota Senator Heidi Heitkamp stopped by to show her support.

Steven Seagal's Set at Estonian Music Festival Canceled
MOSCOW – A set by Steven Seagal at the Estonian music festival Augustibluus in early August has been canceled over the U.S. actor's support of the Kremlin's policies in Ukraine.
Raul Ukareda, the festival's program director, was quoted by the online newspaper DELFI as saying that the organizers chose to cancel the Steve Seagal Blues Band's set, responding to public opinion in a bid to avoid "negative associations."
STORY Steven Seagal Guest of Chechnya Leader Ramzan Kadyrov at Anniversary Gala
"We hope that Estonian public will primarily view Seagal as an actor and musician," he said. "But, as it turned out, everyone sees him only as a politician and [Vladimir] Putin loyalist."
According to Ukareda, the organizers wanted Augustibluus to stay away from any political issues.
A campaign against Seagal's performance in Estonia was recently launched by Estonian veteran singer Tonis Magi, who insisted that a performance by Seagal, who has openly supported the Kremlin on Crimea and Ukraine, would be considered a "provocation." Magi was especially upset by the fact that Seagal praised Russia's annexation of Crimea at a recent biker festival in the Crimean city of Sevastopol, and even performed the anthem of the self-proclaimed separatist Donetsk People's Republic.
STORY Steven Seagal to Star in Russian Weapons Ads
Estonia's foreign minister, Urmas Paet, also spoke against Seagal's performance at the festival, saying that the organizers should be more sensitive to public opinion.
A year ago, there were reports that Seagal had received a proposal to feature in ads for the Russian weapons manufacturer Kalashnikov. There has been no news about the actor actually signing a contract, but Russian media reports quoted him as saying that he was still interested.

Secret to Obama's Success: A Great Ground Game
President Obama won re-election in part because his crack campaign team understood 2012 voters and put together an impressive ground operation. Out of professional respect, Republicans should refrain from cracking jokes about the president's erstwhile profession, community organizing. That's what I took away from recordings of Harvard's Institute of Politics quadrennial presidential campaign autopsy, which were released Monday.
Team Obama conducted nightly surveys of 9,000 likely voters in 10 battleground states. Because of those surveys, campaign manager Jim Messina told the gathering, "We thought we knew exactly where the electorate was." The campaign's targeting was so tight that national field director Jeremy Bird was able to see support slacken at Ohio State University and respond by multiplying the campaign's presence. Messina claimed, "We knew exactly who we had to go get."
The Obama campaign continually asked not only for people's votes but also for their time and engagement. Call your friends, the campaign would urge supporters, and make sure they vote for Obama, too. Digital campaign maven Teddy Goff boasted that an astounding 99 percent of the campaign email list voted.
Political consultants like to think of themselves as the secret ingredient that wins or loses races. The Obama campaign, to the contrary, depended upon volunteers and field workers. In 2008, the campaign sent out regular "state-of-the-race memos," then-campaign manager David Plouffe wrote in his book, "The Audacity to Win," because, "It could not have been more important for our supporters to understand how we saw the race and to know why their money and time were so important." The campaign saw grassroots supporters "as full partners and had designed a campaign with the belief that they could make the difference for us."
You could call the 2012 Obama operation a successful marriage of old-style ward-heeling to state-of-the-art numbers-crunching and milking social media. The journalist moderators asked Team Romney if GOP candidates would have to moderate their positions on, say, immigration, to win in 2016. Romney campaign manager Matt Rhoades regretted the campaign's decision to hit Texas Gov. Rick Perry's support for in-state tuition for illegal immigrants as well as Mitt Romney's call for illegal immigrants to engage in "self-deportation."
The GOP ticket's share of the Latino vote has fallen since George W. Bush won about 40 percent of that vote in 2004. John McCain garnered 31 percent of the Latino vote, Romney 27 percent.
Ron Paul adviser Trygve Olson suggested that the party might want to channel some libertarian ideas to attract enthusiastic young voters.
Matt David, who advised former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman in the race, posited that the GOP might want to rethink a couple of positions but argued that the real reason for a Republican freak out is technology. "The GOP is far behind there.'"
The last strong push to modernize the GOP, GOTV (get out the vote), came in 2004. It's time for an upgrade at the Republican National Committee. Quoth David, "The beauty of technology is that you can buy it. The challenge is that you need the institutional knowledge to use it."
I wish the Obama White House cared as much about the economy as the campaign cared about winning. But I have to respect success. Obamaland knows how to appeal to voters. Republicans should listen and learn.

I really like the enclosed skyrides like these. It sure beats having to walk from one side to the other when you're "beat" at the end of the day. While the ride itself is actually shorter than other parks' ride like this one, it's still a great idea for a people mover & a big help to those of us who may need a little extra help getting back across.

Watson returns to No. 17 and fond moment in '82
Great shot, victory, but that was then
PEBBLE BEACH The 17th hole at Pebble Beach isn't what it used to be for Tom Watson.
In his practice round Wednesday on the eve of today's start of the 110th U.S. Open, he pulled his 3-iron from the bag and hit four consecutive shots from the tee. "Didn't sniff getting on the green," he said.
Later in the conversation he admitted, "Seventeen is going to be a hard hole for me."
Pebble's 17th and Watson will be forever linked. His chip-in on the seaside hole in the 1982 U.S. Open propelled him to one of his greatest victories, and there may not be another player in golf history more associated with one small plot of land.
Watson is 60 now, and though he has overcome all odds to contend with the young guys in the last two major championships in which he's played, golf can be cruel in its utter disregard for stature, circumstance or history.
"I hope that I have a chance to win," Watson said. "I hope that I can put myself in position to win. It would be pretty cool. If I don't win, it's probably my last U.S. Open."
This is U.S. Open No. 31 for Watson, and he is at Pebble Beach on a special exemption from the U.S. Golf Association. It was not simply a sentimental choice to allow Watson to become the only golfer to have played in all five Opens at Pebble Beach.
He earned the consideration last year when he came within making one 6-foot putt on the 72nd hole of capturing the British Open at Turnberry. Watson lost a playoff to Stewart Cink, and though it could have crushed him, he has only seemed more rejuvenated.
He won a Champions Tour event in January, has four top-20 finishes with the seniors, and in April opened the Masters with a 67 before eventually finishing tied for 18th.
With his son, Michael, on his bag this week, just as he was at Augusta, Watson will try to rekindle a love affair with Pebble Beach that began when he was a student at Stanford, got in good graces with the starter and hopped on the course regularly for free.
"This place brings back such wonderful memories for me," Watson said.
Of course, none better than those of '82 and his "lucky" chip.
He was tied with rival Jack Nicklaus on that Sunday, and when Watson got a good lie in the greenside rough at 17, he called his shot. He told his caddie, the late Bruce Edwards, that he was going to make it. The ball squirted hard off the club, but the flagstick acted as a backstop, and the ball dropped in for birdie. The shot is widely considered the most memorable in U.S. Open history.
Anytime Watson plays the hole again, somebody wants to take a picture.
"It's pretty sweet. It's pretty nice," he said.
Watson's face lit up when he recalled being at Pebble Beach a few years after '82 and having dinner with friends. After much wine had been consumed, he stood up and announced that they should all go out and try "The Shot."
