But, I will not vote for any candidate who is pro-choice or anti-family.
Republican candidates cannot win without the votes of folks like me.
And, that's the truth.
It's not that GOP candidates will suddenly be pro-abort and pro-gay marriage, they will mostly nominally be against those things. But they will fight less and less on those issues and focus far more on fiscal policy battles. You'll see far more Bob McDonnell types like we have in Virginia. He's a social conservative but didn't run on those issues. He basically gave assurances to the social conservatives that he was one of them and then never mentioned those issues again while campaigning. I think you'll see less and less candidates like Akin.
