They're conservatives. You should try it. It's the reason we're all here.
“They’re conservatives. You should try it. It’s the reason we’re all here.”
I am a conservative for all of my 72 years. And I have learned in that time that there is a looney Right, just like there’s a looney Left. Solid Conservatives would not harm their electoral chances with making statements like Mourdock and Akin did. I am just looking for a reason for their actions. I thought maybe, since one of the posters mentioned that these men were “religious” that perhaps their religious beliefs led them to the statements they made. Just what drove them to these utterances is all I am interested in knowing, and neither of them has satisfactorily explained why they did it.
