It's a very strange kind of conservative, who would rather have whomever the Dem candidate is to be, elected and who delights in trying to trash anyone and everyone not in complete lockstep with you.
Have you a preference, or are you waiting, with bated breath, for some perfect CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE, writ large, to descend from the skies, deus ex machina, to "save the day"?
I have a candidate who lines up with all the planks listed in JimRob's post. Duncan Hunter. No need for a Deus Ex Machina ending to this story, the cavalry (well, Rangers) have arrived.
