Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush should teach us, the GOP wins when it stands on firm conservative principles. Compromising the rights of unborn babies is the wrong strategy to beat Hillary in 2008. Now, Condi is a great Secretary of State and she will probably not run for President. But if she does, she'll lose in the GOP primaries (rightly so).
I feel the same way. Why when the Republicans have made such strides in the last decade should we sell our Party short by moving centrist? When we do, as you correctly state, we will lose. I want to see a good conservative like Dan Quayle run. Dan's pro-family, pro-values, and pro-defense. He'll keep us on the moral compass like Reagan did and W does. I suggest everyone interested contact him through either phone or mail encouraging him to run (see post 14). We need to choose him.
