What I have come to understand from this exchange is that I believe that convictions matter, you don't.

Don't be such a dolt. "Dog Gone" has convictions. What he is expressing is that convictions are NOT ENOUGH.

Say for example the folks who fought the American Revolution had no guns, and instead attempted to engage in hand-to-hand combat against the heavily armed British troops. Would we be praising them today for their convictions? Of course not. We would be cursing them for being so damn stupid---while we were busy singing "God Save The Queen."

Convictions HAVE to be backed up by reasonably sound STRATEGY for achieving them. This is something the Constitution party most certainly does NOT have. And without sound strategy, convictions are WORTHLESS.

Wake up and smell the coffee... and help us move the Republicans to the right.

You said what I wanted to say far more succinctly than I did. 100% concur.

And THAT is exactly what the CP was all about..if he could achieve that aim, he would have still won. do you really think he ran because he thought he could win like some of the morons on this thread?? ;)) [No insult intended..that was rhetorical]

The entire problem with our party, are the blind sheeple who will NOT pressure the Republicans to move right and idolize them just because they aren't labeled as RATS even though half of them vote like it.

Someone made the comment earlier that the CP was somehow left of us...a most ridiculous statement. The only thing nuts about them is their isolationist view of the WOT...for if we do not prosecute this WOT over "there" it will more readily come here and then no ideas will matter if we're dead..;)

My one and only reason for posting was given in my comments in post 1..."some good ideas"..and I even criticized his isolationsist Buchananesque stance. Obviously, the fascist ones among us resorted to DU tactics and name calling...and never even read it...scary...no, it is sad.

Cheers.
