Really? I didn’t know that. I’ve supported Alan Keyes for 30 years. Good man. Good mind. Too bad the country doesn’t realize how much it needed him. Look where we find ourselves now! Whatever happened to all those FReeper Conservatives?!

Well the long and short of it is FR is basically irrelevant to who the Republican nominee is and who wins the presidential election - unless there’s some incident similar to the Rather/Texas Guard thing - same of course is true of DU, and Daily Kos and whatever.
As active and large as the board is it’s still a micropscopic (and unrepresentative) portion of even just the Republican Party, much less the electorate as a whole.

Some now refer to themselves as "social conservatives" or "moderate republicans". These are the people who try to convince conservatives they hold Conservative core principles while at the same time are willing to embrace at least some socialist views to the extent they will consider a socialist like Guiliani. They try to convince themselves and other there is a difference voting for socialist Guiliani or Socialist Clinton. They will only fool themselves in the long run and destroy the country in the process.

Most of them were sickened by Keyes’ support of reparations.
