"moderate Republicans who Reagan brought over"
I don't agree. Reagan brought real social conservatives to the Party. Your man was Goldwater. That's the standard you are looking for. You want a Goldwater party.

Not really sure about Goldwater. What I want is inclusiveness and understanding that not every Republican is a Conservative. Some are pro-choice, some could care less about gay marriage, some want government to be more involved in helping the citizens who cannot help themselves.
However, all are concerned that we remain a strong and free nation, with a strong leader and solid business ties as well as the willingness to allow people to decide for themselves how they want to live their lives.
A good portion of this nation want this and the ideology that best sells their message to the moderates will be the ones in office in 08. The Libs are selling it. The Conservatives won't.
