Please explain if you will just what a true conservative is?

Fair enough question. I tend to consider a conservative as someone who tries to govern in a manner consistent with the original intent of the constitution. And you are right, most (if not all) of the names on that list are not conservative by that definition.

And so, when looking at who to vote for, I try to figure out who is closest to that and is still electable.

On a zero to one hundred scale, with 100 being totally conservative and zero being totally liberal, I am seeing not too many folks above the 50 mark.

Really difficult decision here.
