There are so many fiscal conservatives that would love to vote GOP but don't simply because of the "morality police" aspect of the party. Bush didn't win because of his morality - he won because of his leadership in the war against terrorism. That issue will not always be at the forefront of every election though.

Well, not to put to fine a point on it but you're wrong. Rockefeller Republicans are no longer the majority in the GOP. Nor will they be any time in the forseeable future. I know you don't like those facts but facts they are nonetheless.

But there's hope, if you are pro gun, pro abortion, pro drugs, pro special rights for homosexuals and pro open borders the LP is looking for a few good men.

The truth is somewhere in the middle. Well, Rockefeller was a big spender, and a union symp, so he wasn't ever very appealing to this RINO. LOL. The fact is, is that the GOP party has its wings, and both are needed in order to fly. Never forget that. They key is to keep folks like me on the reservation - well not me, per se, because I am a political junkie, which certain flash points that make the Dem party unacceptable to me (teacher's union and vouchers, tort lawyers and tort reform), but you get the drift. The GOP needs securlarists that feel folks of faith, including Evangelicals are not a threat to America. The GOP needs in short the I'm OK, you're OK crowd on this matter, to get above 50%.
