Its about giving a little representation to the values of the vast majority of people who will wind up voting GOP on election day. I'm not saying to get rid of the ones already slated to appear, but instead to simply make time for a full conservative.

Also, the media will attack it no matter what. If it were conservative-heavy, then it would be a shrill, mean-spirited, divisive, anti-diversity, gathering of rightwing extremists. If the moderate-liberals dominate as scheduled now, then it will be a disingenuous representation of the party; a cynical attempt to place a nice face on what is really a shrill, mean-spirited, divisive, anti-civil rights, anti-gay, wacko party of Christian extremists.

That's my point.
Everyone already knows we are social-conservatives. That's a given. What nobody else is hearing is who else is on our side.
Besides that, we don't even know what will be said.
I think it's a shame that nobody is giving them the benefit of the doubt first, but attacking right up front.
I can't believe so many have fallen on their week knees (not directed at you) already, and we still have a long way to go.
Politics is a blood sport.
