I have seen Rabid Palinistas (of which I still consider myself) claim to be hardcore conservatives. I also watched them condemn anyone that would not vote for Romney, Mitch or Jonbon.
Lesson? Actions speak louder than words. They will turn on Cruz as they turned on conservatism before and it won’t be his actions or voting that causes it. They do what they do because they are here to ensure no conservative gets into power.
What are you talking about? You are saying anyone who won’t vote for Romney, McConnell, or Boehner isn’t a real conservative?
