Writing a book is admirable and I respect that. Waving it in everybody's face is not. I have stated above I will reserve judgement on the piece until I read it.

My organized thoughts are in IT whitepapers and technical hash - not about politics.

OOPS

SB, you are one of my favorite adversaries on Free Republic since -- the book biz aside -- you do not get personal and stay on topic. Thanks!

Conservatives are indeed the cornerstone of the GOP vote, but you vastly overestimate the number of neo-CONFEDERATES in the conservative movement. In fact, you vastly overestimate the conservativeness of neo-Confederates, who vernerate American insurgents who killed 360,000 U. S. troops and defenders of slavery -- there's nothing conservative (or venerable) about insurgents in this country killing U. S. troops in defense of a "right" to own other human beings. For every neo-Confederate it caters to, the Grand Old Party loses four or five potential Republican voters of true conservative principles.
