Agreed.

The time to get a conservative candidate is in the primaries, and if they can’t convince (which unfortunately, it seems that most of them can’t), then vote for whoever has managed to convince. It’s all a numbers game, and the GOP will be completely powerless without majorities.

It's not necessarily that they can't convince, it's that they get diluted by stalking horse libertarian candidates whose sole purpose is to keep the GOPe incumbent in place.

Can't do that when the GOP-E is either rigging or sabotaging said primaries.

Well, as recent history has proven, even with a majority, the GOP, if comprised of moderates, is still completely powerless and will continue to move both the party and the nation, as a result, to the left.

Your argument in favor of the GOP-E simply falls flat.
