There is no doubt that the GOP, and conservatism, needs to become more accepting of gays and gay marriage to survive. The GOP also has to understand that due to gloabl warming we may only have a few years left to live as we will be drowned soon when the ice melts. It is also clear that more social programs are needed.
When conservatives become “accepting” of buggery and sodomite “marriage”, they will no longer be conservative. Which, of course, would be fine with many people, I’m sure.
