Actually, I had to read several of your posts before I figured that out.

ROFLOL! I am one of those Conservative Republicans who believes winning the WH is absolutely necessary and will support the candidate I believe will be a strong leader, supports the WOT, for smaller government, less taxes, law and order, and strict constitutionalist judges.
Social issues should be at the State level and even then you can go too far at that level in legislating what are commuinity problems.
Without a strong President that will support our military and the WOT, social issues will be shoved aside and all the progress that was made will be set back if Hillary becomes President. A social conservative cannot beat her because all you have to do is look at what happened to Rick Santorum in PA. Social Conservative candidates cannot get enough crossover voters to win in statewide or national elections.
This football fan approaches politics the same way -- winning is the prize because without the win your agenda goes down the tubes.
We had social conservatives voted for Dems for Congress this time because they were more conservative then the Republican in the general but they drank the Dem and MSM koolaid and are now seeing those Dems vote in lockstep with Pelosi. That's what happens when voters don't look at the big picture and we are paying for it today. I vote a straight Republican ticket even when I don't like the Republican because of leadership in the State House and Federally.
I do support most social issues but I am opposed to going too far and turning voters off which is what is happening. In order to make sure you keep getting a piece of the pie, you cannot be greedy and take the whole pie. You are going to get blowback and we did this time as some good conservatives went down to defeat. Where were all the social conservatives that allowed this to happen since we are told now they are the only reason we have won? (sarcasm)
