Rush Limbaugh: “Conservatism wins every time it’s tried.”
Well, not every time.
And depends on the candidate.
And the local voters.
And the current “crisis” flavor of the day.
Other than that, every time.
McCain is using conservative rhetoric to win. Too bad it's just rhetoric.
My folks live out in AZ, and the impression they get is that a lot of folks think Hayworth is "slippery" like a snake oil salesman. The infomercials in which he was shilling for people to get "free government money" didn't apparently help that impression.
Rush is speaking of those already in office.
McCain is the #1 fraud in history.
Conservatism would have won if Palin had stayed out of it. She came in the first month JD announced and placed a spiked heel right through his neck. He hasn’t been able to recover since. The poor Tea Party didn’t know what to do so they stayed out of it and JD hasn’t been able to raise much money since then.
It does work everywhere it’s implemented in accordance with Conservative principles.
I have to disagree. McCain has run to the right ever since he started campaigning. He has spent tens of millions of dollars to fool people into thinking that he is conservative. Hayworth was rising in the polls until McCain linked him to several anti-conservative positions (such as the free govt money infomercial).
I don’t think the problem is voters rejecting conservatism, I think the problem is that they have not educated themselves enough to know that McCain is a lying progressive scum bag rat.
McCain is making Conservative noises and it is working. I doubt his sincerity, but Arizona is eating it up.
So you are saying that McCain’s conservative campaign is doomed to fail?
