Would you accept a gay agenda/NARAL supporting abortionist gun-grabber as your party's savior against Hillary Clinton even if it means we abandon the pro-life, pro-family, pro-freedom of religion and pro-gun planks from the party's platform? And most likely ends any prayer of ever overturning Roe vs Wade or preventing gay marriage as the law of the land? And eventually leads to permanently ending any and all mention of God or prayer in the public square? And further erodes away the right of the people to keep and bear arms?
Will preachers speaking out against the gay agenda eventually become a hate crime in America? Will it soon become the law of the land that business owners must allow cross-dressing males to wear dresses in the office or face criminal/civil penalties like they do in San Francisco? Will man-boy "love" soon be accepted by the new American liberal society?
Has the anti-God, anti-America, anti-commonsense and decency ACLU, NOW and NARAL organizations defeated conservatism?
Is conservatism dead in the Republican Party?
Is the conservative movement dead in America?
Is God dead to Americans?
you'd rather lose?
well, you had best plan on making that comeback (regarding Roe) - sometime around 2040 then. Because when you look at the makeup of the court, who is retiring, who is getting old, that's the next chance you'll get to rebuild.
The election of 2004 was more indicative of where the American electorate actually is. The slight shift to Liberalism in 2006 was very small and hid the fact that the voters went for some Democrats who campaigned on somewhat conservative platforms and turned out some Republicans who they saw as somewhat corrupt. Unfortunately corruption is growing and the basically conservative voters will turn that out of office whether R or D, whether real or perceived.
Absolutely not - and the socialists in charge now offer a target-rich environment. Let's hunt some rat!!
.... and, yes, i am ready for a colts victory
It's too early to hand the nomination to Rudy. I am still keeping my fingers crossed that we can come up with Mark Sanford or Tom Coburn or somebody respectable. California Republicans threw McClintock under the bus and look what they got? I am praying hard that that does not happen on a national level.
"Limbaugh for President please".
I love Rush, and appreciate all he's done for the Conservative Movement, but couldn't vote for him for a national office. Multiple divorces = probable character flaw(s).

There's not much left to support on principle, in comparison. The war effort would be all that is left, to differentiate the two. I'm doing what I can, to ensure that the choice doesn't come to this. The primaries are pretty heavily front-loaded, though, so it's do or die for other candidates who would better represent conservative principles, such as, imho, Hunter. I'm going to need a lot of convincing to believe that Romney is not mostly packaging.
If we are not careful it will be.
Republicans eat their own more than Democrats defeat anyone.
We have too much fighting against ourselves to defeat anyone else. As a result we lose elections.
RG will NOT appoint conservative judges - in your dreams.
Funny, in '96, '98 and 2000 the press was asking if liberalism was dead. Hey we will come back if we lay out the values of conservatives.
I'm nothing if not blunt!
BTW, you're becoming one of my favorite posters on FR. I'm anti-RINO too! :o)
Newt to the rescue, as he did in 1994?
I sometimes wonder myself.
There will be a period of a very few years where the liberals will have more control of government. But they will screw up -- they can't help themselves -- and it will not be long before the nation tires of them.
The successful return of conservatism will then depend on a leader who is both charismatic and not aftraid to be really Conservative.
