Think Goldwater would have supported homosexual marriage and unfettered immigration. At the end of his life he was a quasi Libertarian. He took a pro-life stance when campaigning only for votes. He was on the fringes of true conservatism.

I think you’re right on that. Nixon was a mixed bag at best, and Eisenhower was a moderate alternative to Taft. Dewey was on the liberal side of Taft in 1944 and 1948. Wilkie was a Democrat until about a year before the 1940 election.
