I keep wondering why folks think the conservatives stayed home. Personally, I think the "undecideds" and "moderates" (i.e. people too stupid to make up their minds before they get to polling place) sank the 'Pubbies.
And the message that sank 'em was "the Culture of Corruption." They voted against the 'Pubbies 'cause they acting too much like, well, Democrats.
I agree with you. People tend to believe that most people agree with them. But I do not believe there are enough true conservatives to win national elections. We need to woo moderates, independents.
I agree. I know I didn't stay home. I voted for candidates that opposed illegal immigration, opposed open borders, opposed abortion, opposed bigger government, opposed higher taxes.
