I was wondering if anyone has ever worked for or with members of the Club for Growth. Do you see these people as potential allies? Could we at least work with them on specific limited goals? I am interested in your thoughts on this organization.

I think the devil may be in the details. Just from a precursory glance, they seem to sway towards limited government and free market economics. However, they may be Monetarist/Chicago School in their Economics. Judging from the About, I would venture to say they are not Austrian. Allies towards the direction liberty and free markets, yes, for Austro-libertrianism, no. But we need allies from anywhere.
What strategy would they be an ally for?
The fallacies of intellectual communism, a compilation - On the nature of power
They would be like Milton Friedman and the Monetarist. On certain topics, there is consensus.
As for strategy, I believe there is another thread currently speaking on strategy. Obviously, it is something we may need.
Stranger: What strategy would they be an ally for?
In fighting government intervention in markets.

That's not a strategy, that's just an intention.

Potential strategies could include public education campaigns and contacting congresscritters. Hypothetically assume that congress wants to bail out the New York Times. We could join with them in forming an ad hoc coalition to persuade congress to kill the idea. The strategy for such a task should ideally include many tactics including protests outside the local offices of congresscritters, encouraging people to call the offices of congresscritters, passing out flyers explaining why this is such a bad idea etc. etc. etc.
