Very well said, sittnick! It's simply too much to expect conservatives to suck it up time and time again while the Republicans sell us out. I've been bashed before for saying this, but conservatives to the Republican Party are like blacks to the Democrats. We really have nowhere else to go, but the party leadership takes us for granted. We must fight in 2006 and 2008 to retake the heart and soul of the party, to seize it back from those who talk morality and limited government yet do nothing to achieve it!

Indeed! The difference here is that blacks might be one-quarter of the Dem electorate, but conservatives are over three-quarters of the 'pubbies.

Regionalization and realignment continue. We will have to trade in some northeastern seats (Snowe, Chafee and Collins, for starters) for the last few southern spots, and maybe some heartland seats. Hey, does anyone really miss Lowell Weicker, Bob Packwood and Jim Jeffords (as a RINO)?
