Here's the difference, mate: we don't need you. Not at all.

You can scream and rant and pout all you like, but the coming election will be about re-capturing the center, not catering to an extremist base.

You, on the other hand, have a candidate who is currently polling at 2%. It would behoove you to play nice and earn yourself a seat at the table.

***Yes you do. No republican ever wins without the base, and when they try to pander to the lefties they end up with no coattails. You need us, and furthermore, this is a socon website. We already earned a seat at the table, and I don't appreciate someone coming around pissing on our back and saying it's raining.

***False dilemma. We have a candidate who has broad spectrum support and doesn't split the base. We can recapture the center by doing what we ought to be doing, focusing on jobs and immigration. Look at the numbers for people who are against partial birth abortion, something like 90%. Now THAT is an extremist base that Rudy is trying to cater to. No thanks.

***You have a candidate who loses a poll to Hillary in his own state, and who cannot get any traction with the base without resorting to spin and distortions. Well, one good thing is coming of this, the faux socons are showing their true colors.
