The "all-or-nothing" conservatives will always be a problem.
Very conservative or very liberal, just don't have much of a chance being elected President. Yea, I know Regan did it. But, it's still a tough road. It comes down to do you want a very conservative candidate or do you want someone who can win. I guess some people can sleep at night voting for the right person for them and totally losing the battle. Not me. Anybody rather than a Democrat.

The "all-or-nothing" conservatives will always be a problem. welcome to the real world where people vote thier concience instead of blindly supporting a party. I saw what george bush was during the campaign in 2000 and i switched from republican to libertarian before the election and i voted libertarian. If handling conservatives is such a problem for the republican party maybe they should just write them off and allow people who'll sacrafice principal for a particular partys' election to have free reign in the republican party. Of course nothing will change in the republician party because too many buy into "only a few more years and then we'll be conservative."
