I disagree: let the Dems and crony capitalists reveal themselves for the fascists they are.

You are sadly mistaken if you think conceding victory on these issues will change politics: the Dems will just move on to ever more despotic laws and regulations and, with their media cheerleaders lying on their behalf, will probably win on those issues, too.

Make them fight block by block, issue by issue.

I used to feel that way, but where has it gotten the Republican party? The problem is the Republicans get spooked when they get the fake outrage. Look what Indiana and Arkansas did; they passed the laws and then fell all over themselves to appease the libs, dems and gay mafia. In the end the Republicans look weak and the libs use it to paint the Republicans as bigots, homophobes, etc and unfortunately, the low information voters buy it.
IMHO, for the Republicans to take back this country they need to be smarter and more simplistic and focus on the issues that impact everyone. Stay away from these fake outrage issues. Look at the capital that was wasted in Indiana. What did they gain? What are the chances that a religious business owner that caters weddings (for the most part this is what this is about)has strong convictions against participating in a gay wedding. You can be sure the gay mafia and the media have looked everywhere. The only business owner they could find was a pizza joint that doesn't even do catering. The other problem with this issue is how many Religious business owners have been sued for not participating? maybe 4 or 5 in the entire country. Why in the world would the Republicans want to get drug into this debate and fake outrage? If you really want the dems to reveal themselves make them do it on things most Americans can agree on like Immigration. Here is an issue that has about 70% of Americans that disagree with Obama and the dems position. Hang that issue around their neck and make them defend illegals sucking up jobs, taxpayer subsidies, committing crimes. In my opinion issues like this should be front and center and the Republicans need to pound those issues daily. Don't let the media and libs frame the debate about gay rights, war on women, abortion, etc.
