THEY are the ones who need moderating NOT us, we have made too may retreats and too many compromises with the Progressives in the GOP, and look what that has brought us, Ubama, and no force of will to stand up to him.

Zact'ly. Moderates flap their gums about compromise, acceptable candidates, and electable candidates but they themselves will hand a race to the democrats before they'll vote for a conservative. And then they'll turn around and blame the conservatives for losing the race that they refused to vote in or even voted for the democrat.

They're still pointing to Goldwater's landslide defeat as an example but the reality is that they themselves engineered that defeat because moderates like George Romney refused to support Goldwater.

The fact is that the GOP now has a candidate to the left of Bill Clinton and the broken glass republicans are happily destroying the country right along with the left.

That is what bugs me about the Goldwater defeat, that was 50 years ago. Not to mention we have Reagen's 2 truly impressive victories in the 80's.

But you are right when you say that Moderates are the purist bloc of them all, they won't vote for ANYONE, unless they agree with them, on all things.

Willing Blind Fools I say.
