Ya thinK?
If you really believe that, I'm afraid we don't have much more we can discuss. If you would like to understand the viewpoint of the conservative base, you can carefully review the research done by SoConPubbie: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2029558/posts?page=7#7. You'll have to copy & paste; for some reason my computer won't give me a hot link.
"Maybe if you try helping your fellow conservatives to make their voices heard..."
You're not listening. The conservatives don't need any help. It's the "moderates", liberals and most of the mindless 'Rats who need help--at least the ones who, though confused, love the United States, which leaves quite a few of the others.
I would be most interested in your comments after you have had an opportunity to review the SoConPubbie posting I have cited above.
