"if conservatives ever figure out they have to convince a lot more voters before they try running candidates they might someday have a chance at victory. But like all perennial losers, they rationalize their defeats. Their defeats are always someone else's fault...Right wing conservatives need to grow up and take responsibility for their own failures.. If they ever do, they might be a factor. "
Interesting you should say that, since you're trying to rationalize what you perceive as a 2006 with impending future GOP losses, by preemptively blaming them on the conservative wing of the GOP. Pot, meet kettle.
And as to your statement, "The far right believes that voters are ruled by politicans. The truth is voters rule politicians." I don't believe politicians 'rule' me. In fact, I'm voting to ensure they don't. If I believed the voters were ruled by politicians, why would I advocate voting at all?
No, while I don't believe politicians RULE the voters, I do believe politicians who have become entrenched start to think they do. And the only time that political class really pays attention at all to the right wing is when we're ready to depose them. We're ready to march right now, and that has you scared. You might lose the donations that have kept you fat and happy. You might lose the power broker status that has kept you in line for the lobbying job. Sure, sometimes you might pay attention to the voters' wishes, but you're only really concerned about their interests when their primary interest seems to be tossing you out on your ass.
Silliest is your implication that the difference between moderates and conservatives is that conservatives aren't electable, and conservatives don't work to convince the public, and conservatives can't do so. But I'd say that the public largely agrees with us already on the major issue right now--the borders--and what scares you is that YOU can't convince the public and YOU aren't electable even when you pretend otherwise. How many RINOs run as conservatives? Nearly all. But there are almost none that run and win as RINOs. And how many Republicans up for 2006 election are out there banging the drum for the amnesty, instead of calling people who oppose it racists and traitors to the GOP? Gosh, I can't even begin to count. /sarc
