But unfortunately too many 'conservatives' taught everyone else a lesson last November.

Nobody taught anyone a lesson. Conservatives still went out and held their noses for GOP candidates.

Republicans lost due to a variety of factors, none of which include conservatives supposedly staying home. Those who repeat this lie have no proof that they did and are simply masking the GOP's own failures.

You protest too much...

Apparently you did not look at the vote totals. In the 2004 Presidential election there was a total of around 51 million voters that pulled the GOP lever compared to around 50 million for the Rats. In the recent Congressional election only 29 million voters pulled the lever for a GOP candidate and 36 million for the rats. How did the GOP lose 22 million voters if some of the base did not sit at home?

I disagree. While the GOP fought hard to earn its defeat, the alternative (today's reality) is also not what America deserves. The stay-at-home conservatives contributed substantially to the paradigm shift currently underway, just as the GOP "conservatives" who abandoned their conservative ideals to become the liberals we so detest.
