Winning requires compromise. That's not what Alan Keyes does.

My point exactly. The advice of someone like Keyes to the party is counterproductive to actually being able to win.

As I posted earlier, some posters (such as you, apparently) are looking at Brown's election through the prism of political party, and it's implications on the GOP.

FreeRepublic is not a GOP website, it is a conservative website. Perhaps that is why you are struggling to understand why some posters are not as amped up about Brown as you are, and perhaps that is why you are resorting to personal attacks when posters don't agree with your valid opinion. It's all about perspective.

That's because telling the brutal truth and winning popular elections are mutually exclusive in this country. That's how we got into the mess we're in.

Apples and oranges...

Some want Republicans to win elections...

and Keyes wants to win to save the Constitution and the Republic.
