It's not advice; it's reality.
The GOP more than likely has gotten sick and tired of begging the "real, true" conservatives to support them.
I saw on another thread that a very smart freeper (I've forgotten which one) made note of the fact that Newt's Contract with America didn't contain a single social issue. Not one.
But what is the meaning of being a Republican, then??
If the candidates all reject positions of the legacy GOP like low taxes, no gun control, anti-abortion, small government, freedom of the press, freedom of association and freedom of political discourse, why...what, then, is left?!
What would Joe Six Pack think, looking at two candidates: one, the Dem, is pro-choice, pro-tax increase, pro-government regulation of everyone and everything, wants to limit guns, thinks people's views should be limited to private expressions lest they become hate crimes or campaign finance abuse, and he calls for the little guy, students and the middle class to be protected.
Then Joe S. looks at the Pubbie candidate: he, too, is pro-abortion, anti-gun, supports more taxes and government regulation of everything, supports hate crime legislation and CFR, yet instead of supporting students, families and the middle class he supprts outsourcing, high CEO wages and tax breaks for big business.
Who do you think Joe S. will support?
How do YOU see the difference between the parties, once the GOP strips us "legacy" Pubbies and our beliefs from the body politic?
