The NFRA is a small segment [to which they admit] of the total voting populace who participate in the primaries.... By the way where were they in Ames yesterday? Had a few showed up with some cash they could have carried the day for Hunter, but they didn’t.
The IRFA was disbanded several years ago. The Bushbots who took over in 2000 basically ran out all the real conservatives.
That’s why there were 10,000 FEWER people voting this time than last. That’s why we have gone from 5 to 2 GOP seats in Congress. That’s why we can’t get a serious conservative to get Harkin. That’s why we have lost the Governorship for 3 back to back to back elections.
Yet we carried Bush in 2004. Go figure. The moderate establishment types run the place and there isn’t even civil discourse towards real conservatives.
And the biggest problem is that these moderates pose as true conservatives and have all but rebranded what conservatism means and done so with the liberal methodology of using the politics of personal destruction.
