Goldwater was conservatism's most dynamic spokesperson in 1964, and he lost in a far more conservative time.
The sad fact is that nearly half of America STILL APPROVES or STRONGLY APPROVES of the destruction of America that Obama is carrying out....or....some even disapprove because he's not destroying it fast enough!
None of these people want to hear a "conservative message." And a majority of the voters in Delaware have registered that way.
Sometimes a frontal assault is not brave, it's just suicide.

Let us hope that subterfuge, irresponsible apathy and abject ignorance carry the day in Delaware then.
This may work in that tiny, pathologically blue state, but the conservatism message for better or worse, is eventually going to have to be proclaimed, loudly, out front, and in the large font.

We think Charlies was a genius last night — he took the angry ball that Rove pitched and hit it right out of the park — just look at the number of responses/comments here alone, he purposefully further motivated millions of us, in every state, and we think he did it on purpose. A game winning strategic move? We think so!
SO TRUE!!! Cudgel Coons with his record and his Marxism. At the end of the day, the voters of DE will decide.

:o)
Lol, thanks SS!
