Bingo. And, unfortunately, 98% of the post-2006-midterm-elections FR won’t understand that.
Proves to me once again that Mitt Romney is really a wolf-in-sheep’s clothing. I don’t believe he believes truely in Conservatism (Ronald Reagan Conservatism): He merely wants to make it look like he is (nominally-”in the middle”) which means he wants it BOTH ways!
He wants to appeal to the wishy-washy wall-street croud, and at the same time (do anything) pick up-enough Conservative votes to try to get the nomination, yet really be a “pragmastist” (POST MODERN), rather than truel leadership.
