Here is the salient point.
“It is a huge challenge when facing a majority of electorate that do not agree with you.”
You DO NOT become socialist to win the election. When viewed from the perspective of ideology, you have won NOTHING. You have lost even though some political party won, because in the end your party is swallowed by the ideology you are attempting to defeat. This has been the case with the GOP. You cannot argue that the GOP’s leftward slide has not been SIGNIFICANT. All in an effort to win an election in areas of the nation where the population votes for socialists.
The only way we are going to win this ideological war is for our “army” to be of singular purpose and singular cause. What army invites the enemy to fight “along side” them??? Just THINK about that statement... We are essentially inviting enemy combatants into our ranks. What do we expect to HAPPEN?!
As I said before defeat the liberal Republicans during the primaries. You do not have another choice.
