There are plenty of conservatives in America, we just need to find one whose got a clean personal life, is a very persuasive public speaker, and is dedicated to conservatism, America, and our Constitution.

I don't understand the logic of many here. Reagan the most conservative president in modern US history beat a sitting President by 10%. George HW Bush lost by 6% after winning a war only a year before. Dole lost by 10%, and GW Bush won by -.5% in 2004, and 2.5% in 2004 against the most liberal candidate a republicans ever faced, during a war where our homeland is under attack. With all this evidence showing the more moderate the candidate is worse they do in an election, they still say our only hope is running a democrat light.

Won't work. The candidate must have infrastructure and an enormous fund-raising apparatus. The last time a candidate went door to door was the peanut brigade during the election of Jimmy Carter and, before that, I'm not sure but it was a long, long time ago. You can't just identify a good republican candidate and expect him to get any traction without the structure.

The elections were already rigged in favor of incumbents but McCain Feingold made sure that would be the case for all time.

Now the elections are rigged in favor of incumbents and the news media. I think the next time I hear one of them touting freedom of the press I'm going to puke. Freedom of the press to do what? Form a cabal and influence public opinion?

I daresay that the founders missed this one. They had no idea that Americans would be so brain dead that they get all of their news from a handful of intellectuals in New York City.
