My point: quit referring to the self-proclaimed "true conservatives" as any sort of asset until they actually demonstrate that they are assets to anyone except the Democratic Party. They are nothing of the sort. Until they (a) realize that they are helping elect Democrats, and (b) that the Democrats are not supporting their issues, I am going to continue blasting them--assuming that they are sincere in their stated goals, which I am not entirely convinced of.
My experience, from several election campaigns, is that "true conservatives" will say anything to get into positions of trust in campaigns, and will then wreck the campaign at the 11th hour, all because the candidate is insufficiently pure. Hell, at one point, they did it to Bill Simon's campaign--and if Bill Simon isn't pure enough for them, nobody is.
If these self-proclaimed "true conservatives" spent their energy doing this to Democrats, this state would be a GOP lock. The fact that they spend their energy on clobbering the GOP makes me intensely suspicious.
Golly isn't that a profoundly loaded contradiction?
Lets play a word game shall we?

I agree, both of your a screw ups.
