If Republicans nominate a strong conservative, it could hurt them on Election Day. A lot.

Well, THAT IS what the Washington Post democrats want, isn’t it?
Speaker Pelosi in charge again in 2016.
Why should the Washington Post give “good advice” to any repubbie anywhere? Listen to what they say, what they write. Then DO the exact opposite.

Somebody needs to highlight what this article says about Trump’s probability of winning if he is the nominee. If I’m reading it correctly they give him a FIFTY FOUR percent chance of winning if he is the nominee. That’s shocking...

Thanks, libs, for warning us how we could lose to you. You sure are helpful like that.
We listened to you when you told us Romney had “elect-ability”
And when McCain was ‘Maverick’
Yep... you’re sure helful.

For all intents and purposes, Pelosi still was the Speaker of House, might as well have been. EXCEPT that she no longer has those luxury Air Force flights cross-country with the free booze and rides for her cohorts. Nor does she have the Secret Service to keep her safe.
Other than that, you are correct!

That’s right because after all they assured me that the second rate actor was too old, too far right, and too crazy to be a good president.
Since they were so right in 1980, these libs must still know what they are talking about

These two pixies need to be worrying about their idiot candidate who has REAL problems that “could hurt them on Election Day.” She might even be in prison election night, God willing.

The last time a conservative ran for President and was nominated by the GOP, he won in a landslide.

Political science research shows that ideological moderation actually is rewarded at the ballot box in House elections and presidential elections. The same thing is true in the 2016 presidential race. In fact, we estimate that in 2016, the electoral penalty for choosing a true believer rather than a moderate is a 23-percentage point decline in the probability of winning the general election. Because ... global warming?
