"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Don’t you know the godless Left would have a coronary should there be a new Christian Conservative Party with Sarah Palin running at the top of the ticket? It would certainly serve the Republican Party right for continually disparaging Christians, as Sarah is being maligned by the “moderates” on McCain’s staff today.

Great verse IMO to win on.....
I’m all about social issues. But I’m also about property rights, gun ownership, free speech, states rights, taxes, and fiscal responsibility, i.e the Constitution.
There are more issues than just abortion and gay marriage.
I don’t think we need a Big Tent GOP, but we do need Big Tent Conservatism. Social conservatives need to understand their issues are part of the spectrum.
Asking Tony Perkins to comment on the future of the conservative movement is like asking Captain Edward John Smith to comment on the future of the Titantic.
Small government, fiscal responsibility and individual liberty are issues that win every time, young or old. The real problem is that the current GOP is hardly any of those things. The GOP is trying to be big-gov lite, which will never win against the real thing.
Republicans had a real chance to show how well true conservatism works, but got drunk on power and blew it. For their failure, we now have Obama.
And if you think you can organize the party around the religious right, then the Democrats will be in power forever. Like it or not, that’s just the cold, hard truth.
The current GOP is circling the drain, and it’s hard to say that they don’t deserve it.
Small government.
Fiscal responsibility.
Individual liberty.
Don’t just talk about it; take action and lead by example.
Whoever figures out how to put the Reagan coalition back together - religious conservatives, fiscal conservatives, and Reagan Democrats - will be the next conservative leader.
The white population is getting increasingly secularized. The only way the RR can survive is to start recruiting among blacks and hispanics, who tend to be more devout churchgoers (and into the god thing) than white folk do.
It is long past the time for Conservatives to form our own party, then endorse Republicans worthy of endorsement and run our own candidates against Republicans--like that Pennsylvanian--who are unworthy.
Reward friends, punish enemies.
Conservatives may no have the power to ensure Republican victory, but we do have the power to ensure Republican defeat.
No, sorry but you helped cause this defeat. we want small -leave us alone conservativism, not a big government you want telling people what to do.
