Amazing,isn't it? We've been told over and over to avoid social issues,but after a democrat convention spotlighting gay "marriage",abortion,and birth control,we find our side is LOSING!!!!!!!
The lesson?: Trying to silence a third of your conservative base in order to try and appease people that will NEVER vote for you anyway is NOT a winning strategy!
It always amazes me how a conservative website that knows the reality of liberal media bias, constantly falls for the BS.
...and this Election is about Jobs and the Economy.
We will win.
If a third of our constituents are so brain dead that they stay home and let Obama get reelected, then maybe there is something to the Dems’ ideas on abortion after all.
Ummm, those votes that Romney’s losing—moderates and women—aren’t with the GOP on social issues. In fact, Rush’s getting crudely insulting of Fluke and Aiken’s sounding like a neanderthal both set Romney’s campaign back without Romney weighing in at all.
I am no fan of Romney’s, but IMO it’s the lack of really going after Obama, and the RINO/GOPe consultant types buttering up Obama more than cutting him down that is giving the election away.
Where our side gets energized and enlarged, as with the election in 2010, is when the tea party issues of small government and fiscal conservatism are brought to the fore.
