“How does calling people stupid win them over to our side? That’s stupid.”

And what do you seek to win? How do you define a win? Bend to the will of the uneducated masses as Jindal and Rubio wish for us to do?

Or are you saying that those that stayed home because Romney wasn’t pure enough aren’t really stupid, and that Obama is no worse than Romney? Do you really want to engage in that debate?

Are you saying that if the proper conservative is offered up, then these people will be motivated? And you’d like me to refrain from accurately describing those who would make the perfect the enemy of the good?

No sale.

“And what do you seek to win?”

Umm...votes.

You didn’t answer my question. How does calling people stupid win their vote?

It obviously doesn’t. A lot of us are still venting, but at some point a little political introspection might be wise for all of us. You don’t win elections by being condescending. You come off sounding like that which you decry.
