Well Put.
Republicans need to understand that Conservatives vote Republican because Democrats vote Liberal.
If Democrats were to toss out every Liberal in their Party, and become a Party more Conservative than Republicans, the Republicans would lose a lot of their base support leaving only RINO's and "moderates".
Conservative first, Republican second.
I dream of this day, and I believe that a nationwide grassroots movement to "toss the liberals out" would do a world of good for both parties: It would make the democRats a viable party again, and would definitely sober up the Republicans and make them toe the line. It could even bring back a government of, by, and for the people.
