The problem is that conservatives do not bother to vote. They evidently have better things to do.

The real problem is conservatives aren't always given a person "worthy" to get their vote. The "lesser of two evils" arguement, which many throw out at election time to drum up support for a RINO over a Democrat, has proven to be a failure.

People like McCain, Graham, McConnell, Boehner and others; are just as much of the reason the nation is in the sad condition, as the Democrats.

"The real problem is conservatives aren't always given a person "worthy" to get their vote."

Very true. But I'm afraid that is the reality of the world we live in. Neither McCain nor Romney were my preference, but I voted for both of them. I mean, look at what we got.

And, to be perfectly honest about it, ever since I first began voting in 1971, I've voted for only one candidate that I absolutely knew was "worthy" - me. I ran for a city council seat in 1982 and voted for myself. Every other election, I voted for the lesser of the evils.
