IMO, our problem is that we are divided, between different conservative candidates instead of getting behind one conservative.
Were any of them perfect? No. But we need to admit that our strategy of splitting our vote between several conservatives only hands the nomination to a Romney or McCain.
One of the key ingredients in Reagan’s 80 victory was that there were not 6 conservatives on the primary ballot. There was only ONE.
... not arguing with you. Just frustrated, again.
Cheers,
You are exactly correct. From the time this started people around here were sold on someone who wasn’t running. They didn’t know that until too late. They had already been trashing anyone that wasn’t that candidate in order to clear the way for that candidate.
If it wasn’t for that, you may have seen folks come together on a candidate.
So...here we are.. it is a shame.
Heck, Newt was the only one who rose up to "mediocre."
