Thin? Decimate is a better word.
Decimate means to remove 1/10th. I would rather we drive then to extinction.
(FACT) We have to handle local and State issues on the local and State levels. Like it or not, we are now a centrist nation. We are slightly to the right some years and slightly to the left other years. A centrist NATIONAL electorate will NEVER elect a “social consecrative” to national office.
(SOLUTION) The RNC MUST state three goals for any future NATIONAL ticket. One, they must show fiscal conservatism, small government and respect for “States Rights”. Two, they must stand for national security, which includes secure boarders and energy independence. And third, they must stand for rule of law. When the right candidates runs, that approach should win NATIONAL elections.
Following the lead of any national ticket and understanding “States Rights”, State and local tickets can adopt a consecrative social agenda that fits their socio-geographic area. That apraoch, with the right canditate running, should also win elections
