But how does that explain that you are willing to run people off who do not agree with you 100%.. Oh please. The 100% crowd is the 20% demanding 100%.

A real conservative that votes GOP. Simple. That doesn't fall into any of your own described categories.
"There is no "base" in the GOP there is only a loosely organized bunch of narrowly focused "conservatives and PJB populists""
Which begs the question: What pigeon hole do you put Bush in? Is he a "narrowly focused conservative" or a "PJB populist"?

Do you care to expalin that.. it really makes no sense. You have 20% at best of the voting public demanding 100% influence over GOP policy. Anything less and they withhold their vote or go 3rd party. It has been that way in every election since 1992.

Yeah Tex, your wining.....
Thanks, I needed that belly laugh.

"You have 20% at best of the voting public demanding 100% influence over GOP policy. Anything less and they withhold their vote or go 3rd party. It has been that way in every election since 1992"
O slet me get this right, you say screw that 20% Lets chase them off.. we don't need them. We don't need their vote.
Could that be the same 20% who put Clinton in office by voting for Perot and staying home? Good strategy there! ( do you need the sarcasm tag?)
