I strongly, but respectfully disagree. IMO, your ‘description’ (which seems to be held widespread among the supporters of top tier candidates) is an attempt to redefine conservatism. You may call conservatives with strong positions on key issues separatists or fanatics, but IMO, the ‘reasonable’ government you’re looking for is RHINO and will result in more of the same. It is conservatives who must disavow each and every attempt at moderation.
Well, moderation may be the central thing here. And we disagree. BTW I don’t support anyone yet.
Whatever happened to Reagans “big tent” and his 11th commandment?
