One thing conservatives need to realize is that the America that elected Ronald Reagan does not exist anymore. While conservative talk radio markets to middle aged white men, the Left has been wooing the Gen Y crowd. As a result, Gen Y is the most Dem leaning generation since the FDR era. Conservatives need to figure out a way to reverse this tide if conservatism is to have a future.

The America that elected Ronald Reagan still exists. We just don't have Ronald Reagan heading the GOP ticket this time around. Reagan was the real uniter.

Fact is, most of America is tired of Bush43 and Republicans. Sadly, it didn't have to be that way.

Yehp, just a few years ago these kids were booing PC speakers at college commencement classes. now they are repeating the things that they are saying. Wars tend to change country's one way or the other. this one reminds me of the changes that occurred form Vietnam. this country changed dramatically from 1967 to 1971. Those of us who were around then remember it. On the other hand while the short term seemed to benefit the Dem's the long range had the reverse effects. So there is till hope. we need to find a message that is right for the times and one that we can support.
