Considering she scuttled Fred Thompson’s mentor’s plan for the Equal Rights Amendment, I give her some credit.

Schlafly doesn’t seem to realize that the mercantilist beliefs she worships like a religion were disproved by Adam Smith over 200 years ago.

It's generally very rare for her to actually have any idea of what she's talking about.

On the one hand, she wants a social Conservative who appeals to values-voters, and on the other, one who appeals to job-concerned Reagan Democrats.

That’s a very broad spectrum. And, I’ll get clobbered for saying it, but Reagan didn’t quite walk the talk on social issues - looked who he nominated to the Supreme Court (Scalia - good; Kennedy and O’Connor - much less so).

Also, it’s primary season - candidates are trying to appeal to the base. That’s not where the Reagan Democrats live, by definition.

Her day has come, and gone. In real life, she's a petty, self-impressed, pedantic power-seeker. Instead of thinking of the long-term good of the country, by not being a good team player, she (among others of her ilk) is handing the election to Hillary on a silver platter.

I used to think that the Democrats had a monopoly on arrogance and elitism. I can now thank the the "moral" leaders of our party for showing themselves as the self-righteous political rubes that they are.

I'll remember them with in my prayers as I pay higher taxes (oops, "contributions") and wait for my turn in the Hillarycare clinic.
