You misunderstand the comment.

Conservatives have never been able to get their candidates in the position to be elected because we destroy each conservative candidate on the way to the nomination.

We demand such purity, going back decades, that we rip them apart and leave them in tatters for the establishment to knock over.

When we point out things and say “In 1997, he said X!”, the establishment then tells voters who aren’t paying enough attention “See? He can’t even get the support of the right-wing! How could he possibly win an election?”

We do the dirty work of the establishment and the liberals for them.

We have to stop that. Or we will never, ever get a conservative in position to be elected.

Amen!!!

Some are blinded by the quest for the “perfect conservative”.

None of the candidates running for the Republican nomination have ever fit this impossible “perfect” notion.

I’m with you. Really sick of seeing hyperpurists questioning, tearing down, and smearing every single candidate “insufficiently” conservative for their tastes.

We end up with nothing. Nobody’s good enough and we end up with eight long years of treason, dissention, and atrocity.

Enough: every single candidate except Jeb and Lindsey would do far, far better than Obama and Clinton.

Donald Trump will have my vote if he’s the standard bearer.

Oh, I see. I did misunderstand. Yes, the GOP lets the CINOs take over because they bash the true conservatives into oblivion.
