There’s not going to be much of a “full-out conservative revolt.” Who’s going to lead it? Who’s going to fund it? In the meanwhile Barack is pointing at Mitt and screaming, to the tune of his billion dollar Democrat campaign budget, LOOK! HORRIBLE TERRIBLE CONSERVATIVE, WILL DESTROY MY WHOLE LEGACY!

That’s what’s going to carry America for Mitt.

In other words, like I said, it's going to be Mitt being cast as a conservative (even when he's not) that protects him.

Pappy Bush went cockeyed on taxes and sold out to the Democrats. Fiscal Conservatives stayed home.

McCain let his former Romney staffers attack Sarah Palin and her children. He got only 59 million votes ~ with 17 million Evangelicals staying home.

Romney is at least as offensive as McCain, and his track record in Massachusetts tells us he has little grasp of how you whack government spending.

That's two times we've had a Conservative revolt. Quite arguably Barry Goldwater precipited the same thing ~ the 30% of the black vote that Nixon had gotten went to LBJ. Plus, the social conservatives recognized that Goldwater had decided he didn't need them in his party. They stayed home and he lost in a route.

Even earlier Windell Willkie, a Romney-esque sort of candidate lost in a campaign when several Republicans could have won.

Running a Faux Democrat when it's time to have a Republican Conservative on the job is just so IGNANT.
