“Not even Reagan was perfect” Rush 10-11-11
Reagan wouldn’t win in todays GOP.
It is a tough line to walk. I want a conservative, but I don’t want to be 100%er, who demands someone agree with me on every single issue (which only sets potential candidates up for failure, imho.) .
Unfortunately, in the zeal to get a conservative, the nitpicking has caused some to eliminate really good candidates and left them standing alone; and has the potential to do so more.
