The only problem with this line of reasoning is what do you offer these evangelicals, Christians and socons that would make them do what you espouse? Not since Ronald Reagan have I seen any Republican candidate for President that was worthy of my socon vote and I rather suspect that I'm no where near alone in that sentiment. Actually I sense that sentiment to be growing in size and numbers every year since the Reagan Presidency.
Moving to the left of center hasn't worked so why not try moving back to the center of right and see what happens?! If not then the Republican Party should just go ahead and make it official that they have lock, stock and barrel become the party of the liberal RINO. Be done with it once and for all. End the charade of pretending to be the party of conservatism.
۞ "Since the bygone days of Ronald Reagan the present day Republican Party has taken on the appearance and all the demeanor of the corrupted liberal Democrat Party and has now become the party of appeasers, apologists, liberalism and an ever bigger government with all of the welfare largesse that emanates from it."
See post 75, we already win the Evangelical vote with almost 80%, in fact our second largest denomination, the Southern Baptists voted 80% for McCain in 2008, when our largest denomination, Catholic, was voting 54% for Obama.
It is the Catholic vote that conservatives need to figure out how to win.
