If you push the Conservatives out of the Republican party, You can call them yourselves. You'll be responsible for their rise to power. Liberal Republicans cannot win an election alone.
How can you push somebody out who you can't DEPEND on to care what happens to this country, who's more interested in their own personal agenda than what's best fot the WHOLE country?
We've spent the last 16 years hearing about how your vote is for sale -- i.e., blackmailing the GOP.
The part you don't get is it's better to be PART of something than all alone; like I said, the GOP will moderate and find conservative Democrats who are scared of the freaks on the left to join with to save this country.
The GOP is willing to give you SOME of what you want (pandering) but you want all or nothing. You all just never understood that some of us don't agree with everything YOU want.
And you and I both know if conservatives could win by themselves, they would have already left us "great unwashed" Republicans.
