They've given the social right far more than its due these past years. Now, it's time for the fiscal conservatives to have a couple of decades in the driver's seat to undo the damage.
Are you joking? Social conservatism is what built the Reagan revolution. Fiscal conservatism combined with social moderacy/liberalism was what we had with the Rockefeller and country club-type Republicans, you know, the ones who kept losing elections at the Congressional level, and who gave us creeping socialism at the presidential level. When Reagan combined fiscal conservatism with social conservatism (not hard to do, since a majority of social conservatives, especially white Southern social conservatives, were already fiscally conservative as well, but just needed someone to appeal to them and entice them away from blind party loyalties), he brought the Reagan Democrats on board and formed the coalition that eventually swept the GOP into power in 1994. Now, a combination of socially-liberal GOP fecklessness and corrupt GOP politicians is destroying the party and the coalition.
Majorities support social conservatism on practically every issue across the board - gay marriage, gun control, illegal immigration, even abortion, where polling is showing consistent slight majorities of voters identifying themselves as pro-life and opposing the practice. These are winning issues for the GOP, if they will be used thoughtfully and consistently.
If the GOP folds and we get socialist Democrats in office, the fault will lie with the liberaltarian-type "Republicans" who want to sideline half our winning issues because they personally feel uncomfortable when somebody mentions abortion.
And likely, they'll be as successful as social conservatives have been in stemming the tide of perversion.
