>> As for getting Conservatives elected, that won’t happen on a national scale until we win the left swaying electorate over to Conservative values.

> We’ve seen plenty of situations where the Conservative was winning and the GOPe did everything possible, including throwing the election, to keep the Conservative out of office.

We've also seen plenty of issues transcending the liberal/conservative divide where the GOP did nothing at all — a prime example would be the NSA's domestic espionage. Do you really think that the majority of Americans think this is right? Do you really think that acting against such obviously contraconstitutional policies would be politically damaging to them? Absurd! They could have proven that they are more than talk when it comes to upholding the Constitution garnering some measure of support from those otherwise disinclined to support them and they threw it all away! Why!?

The only explanation that makes sense is that the GOP approves of, and condones, such practices.

In the current environment, what do you propose they do?
