I think we need to be willing to vote for candidates who are less-than-ideal, because the results of the recent elections, and the results of polling since 2004, indicate that conservatives don't make up the majority of the electorate. If the GOP can't appeal to the critical middle, they're dead, and no conservative third-party is ever going to become dominant in this country.

You're right. Not enough realistic, clear-thinking, reality-based, intelligent people to make up a majority-conservative electorate. Doubt there will ever be enough.
