Well, “the GOP” doesn’t nominate anyone. The GOP voters do. If they don’t vote the way you want, that’s your fault. Your personal fault. Your failure.
You did not campaign hard enough. You did not construct adequately persuasive text or speeches. You did not compile proper phone lists. You . . . personally . . . are responsible for your failure. Conservatives accept responsibility for their actions, both successful and failing.
But you need not worry. You will have a choice between someone left of center and someone right of center. They will both be reaching towards the center, regardless of who they are, but it will be clear which is which.

Brilliantly put. It's become almost cliche to blame the GOP 'bogeyman'. Conservatives wouldn't have to worry about 'RINOS' if they had stronger control of the party in the first place.
