The difference between Democrats and Republicans is far, far greater than you allow.
Yes, Republicans are disappointing at times, but seriously, how many voted for Obamacare? Would Romney have appointed Eric Holder?
Even the most imperfect Republican is far better than the most “moderate” (bwahaaha roflmao) Democrat.
Republican politicians have 4 main problems:
- Mainstream media bias
- Democrat fund-raising
- Democrat GoTV - we are falling further and further behind
- Reince Priebus - he should be fired and replaced with someone who understands 21st century get-out-the-vote.
Yes. I will and have voted almost exclusively for Republicans since I could first cast a vote in the 80s. However, the republicans’ actual governance is much different from their rhetoric.
You are focusing on their electoral ineptness to which I wholeheartedly agree.
Republicans to be successful in the future should concentrate on the basics and make good on them.
Strong defense including border security
Responsible spending and taxation
Reduction in size of Federal government, devolving more responsibilities to the states....this way people can decide if they want to live in “high service, high tax state” or “lower service state with lower taxes”...
And the best way for social conservatives to get what they want is to argue that “it is not a function of the Federal government” and “let the states decide”. Yes, I know the left uses the Federal courts to impose their values on us, but if we actively pushed the 10th Amendment and meant it, we could build the court precent over time to better support that proposition.
