How can you advance anything when you lose and hand over power to the very people who are out to destroy you?
"victory through defeat"
Our present dilemma is an example. The CAGOP supported a liberal, European style politician as our governor and now that interloper is biting us all in the arse and the pocket book. Supporting these liberal clones on a national level will end with the same result.
Voting for someone who is a little liberal is like marring a gal who occasionally turns tricks to pay off her Visa card.
Are victories, achieved through the use of political whores or liberal mercenaries, advancing conservatism?
