"Common Sense Conservative" is the new "Compassionate Conservative"?

Conservative does not need any qualifiers to make it sound more enlightened. If you are going to use one, the classic "rock-ribbed" is what it should be. Of course, those folks are few and far between, it appears.

“Common Sense”, in the sense that if you don’t win elections, you’re just making noise and making no sense.

"Common Sense Conservative"

So does that mean all the other Conservatives are stupid?

Compassionate Conservative = Liberal Republican.

40 years from now, people will be saying that there's only one kind of conservative that they will vote for - a TITUS QUINCTIUS CINCINNATUS CONSERVATIVE!

Well one can used whatever moniker they want or like.... but the one who coined common sense conservatives recently, used it as meaning fiscal constraint and 10th admendment empowerment and interchanged it with the meaning of Reagan conservative.......If your guy, Duncan Hunter wants to used just conservative then fine....its no big deal.

I have been thinking the same thing. Since I have been hearing that all the time for a while, I figured it must be the new buzz slogan BS.

Conservatives have common sense, so this is a foolish.

You must not be one of those “common sense” kind. I need to go find out what it will take me to get some of that. LOL

I must be a foolish conservative.

Limp wristed, spineless RINO republicans are perpetually looking for a way to placate the NY TIMES! HARD CORE conservative should be the most popular title.
