Ultimately, social conservatives have to grow up and recognize that their issues are, for the most part, not ones that can be addressed in the political arena. That battle belongs to fiscal conservatives.
After all, you can simply not look at nekkid pictures or not watch unedifying television without the aid of politicians. It's not so easy to simply not pay excessive taxes or follow overrestrictive business regulations.
