Liberalism must be soundly rejected and defeated by the voters. I know of only one party with the numbers and organizational strength to do that.

Jim, too right you are.However, the hard core,death before common sense ,my way or the highway "conservatives" lack the strategic vision to see this obvious fact. Much better to whine and carp from the margins while remaining pure and chaste ,than actually implementing conservative values patiently and steadily.

Look at the history of the congresses over the past 70+ years, starting with the 72nd congress. Also, notice the wide margins at times in which they controlled, for example, the 75th congress: 89 republicans, 333 democrats, and 13 others. The senate has similar numbers.

Since 1933, the democrats had control of the House except for the 83rd, 107th and 108th congress. The 83rd was struggling over McCarthy, and that lasted 2 short years. So, for the past three years, the republicans were supposed to turn around this liberal monster around. In three years? The majority of sheeple would not go for the removal of all their social welfare programs. The liberal monster has infiltrated all aspects of our society. I'm surprised after reviewing just how much power the Democrats had there are any conservatives left. We hung on to fight, and we should not quit after only 3 years of control.

Also, think back to 1936. I don't believe the democrats had been infighting publicly the way the conservatives are today. They understood the plan. Incrementalism and keep your fights private, appear united. Which is exactly the tactic we have to use in order to return our country back to it's original intent.

It is feasible for the republicans to turn around 70 years of socialism. It is not going to be done in a couple years. I wish it were otherwise, but we have to be pragmatic. I'm sticking with the republicans because they have the infrastructure in place. Use the Republican party to advance conservatism, like the socialists and commies use the Democrats. Take advantage of it.
