LOL, riiiiiight. Without the anti-abortion anti-gay agenda vote, we would of had President Gore and lost the House and Senate a long time ago. The social conservative base is the biggest separator between the GOP and Dems and is the most reliable vote the GOP has.
Yes, it is, and if social conservatives care about ever winning again, they'd better get busy figuring out how to go from 30% of the electorate to the 51% they need.
So far, it doesn't look promising.
