IF you mean by fundamental flaw the social/moral conservatives...you are wrong.By fundamental flaw I mean inability to spot a con man.
Huckabee the Huckster was a con man.
Santorum the Sanctimonious is a con man.
Neither are conservatives, yet both got (and get) a tremendous amount of conservative support.
Fundamental Flaw.
“By fundamental flaw I mean inability to spot a con man.”
I don’t think you really understand what a “Con Man” is. Joseph Smith and Brigham Young were con men. L. Ron Hubbard was a con man. Mike & Rick don’t come close to that description.
