I suggest someone come up with a factual, poll and election based retort to Neil Bortz type libertarians and establishment type Republicans.
We should NOT try to change minds on the abortion issue or the gay marriage issue, with this work.
We should instead approach them with the “Hey, I respect YOUR beliefs, but you are wrong to say that Social Conservatism is bad for the Republican Party Because history and statistics proves otherwise!”
Show the number of times gay marriage has been defeated at the polls, even in LIBERAL states.
Show the actual exit polls on the abortion issue. NRLC has often highlighted the “prolife increment” that shows that most of those who vote, single-issue, on abortion, vote prolife.
Show the fact that, when it comes to actual LEGISLATION, like Parental Consent, Parental Notification, Informed Consent, 3rd trimester bans, bans on tax funding of abortion, safety regs for abortion provider offices, etc., that the PROLIFE side wins majorities in ANY public opinion survey.
I am a Newt guy, but at this moment I think Rick S. has a real shot.
You Santorum folks need to do your research and come up with factual, statistical, historically accurate responses, however, if you want to help Rick fight off this garbage.
“Elections are not about saving souls, elections are about getting souls who agree with you, to the Polls!”
Show the squishy crowd and the Libertarian crowd that they are WRONG on the “electability” issue.
Then? The naysayers and cowards will be forced to admit that they are opposed to the social conservative message, itself, rather than “electability”.
This, alone, will SILENCE much of the opposition in RINO and Libertarian camps.
“And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.”
Matthew 10:14
“And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.”
When the republican party will not listen to those that finance and vote for them... it only leaves me and others with one thing to do... and JESUS was clear on this point. My patience with the corrupt and infected republican party is not unlimited and is approaching my final limit.
