I doubt that's going to happen. He blew a lot of his credibility on that one. In any case, I am hopeful that yesterday is the beginning of a trend for conservatives to stop this idiotic policy of going along with the RINOs in the hope that they're at least a little better than the Democrat alternative. We have trouble enough getting the genuine conservatives to live up to their campaign rhetoric. And if it takes staying home instead of voting, so be it. Politics obeys the laws of supply and demand as well. If the GOP continues to put up candidates who generate no excitement, where the only reason given to vote for them is that at least they aren't a Democrat, then they are going to keep losing elections. If they continue to put forth people who woo conservatives during the two months prior to the election but then govern like liberals, then they are going to keep losing elections. Conservatives have been tolerant of betrayal by the moderates and RINOs long enough. We refuse to be the African-Americans of the Republican party, i.e. courted at election time but ignored for the other 3 and a half years of the cycle.

Amen. And Hewitt, no matter how he postures now, has proved he is no conservative.
