“Trying to appease liberal is a sure way to NOT get elected.” (Responding to: Just catering to the conservatives will not get her elected.)

True enough. But a whole lot of people think of themselves as, for lack of a better term, unaligned with either the liberals or the conservatives. She needs a lot of them voting for her if she wants to get elected.

Throwing McCain under the bus after he brought her to the national stage will not help her with the majority of folks she needs.

Agreed, but we should be selling those folks on the virtues of conservatism, not representing ourselves as some kinda quasi-liberal party. We will NEVER win in that arena.
