Go ahead and start “one”? You mean “many”. Conservatives couldn’t even pick between santorum and gingrich and helped get romney in. They can’t agree on anything. Therefore there would be several alternative parties with the impaact watered down even further. Conservatives are like cats and can’t be herded unless a unique uniting personality like a ‘ronald reagan’ comes along. We need a powerful leader and I don’t see one.
It’s not a matter of agreeing. The reality is that most calling themselves ‘conservative’ only want to talk the talk.
We had a bunch of candidates that had histories filled with VERY unconservative actions. From Perry and his HPV mandates and opposition to Border Fencing to Bachmann’s GOP/RINO hiring spree. And there were more.
Facts on the ground are that most ‘conservatives’, candidate and voter alike are at best, moderates.
We are filled with people openly telling us that principle is to be benched in favor of ‘winning’ and pragmatism.
What F’ing moron in their right mind can call themselves conservative while saying openly that principle does not matter? I want to hear it. And to date, over hundreds of threads I posted the question on, not a single so called ‘conservative’ has been able or willing to do squat but duck the question.
Not one will define why principle one not matter.
But many will tell us why voting for everything we oppose is the smart choice as ‘conservatives.
Idiots one and all.
Yep. And that is why Romney was the nominee.
Too many conservatives running split the vote.
Wrong! Conservatives picked Newt. Those against Newt picked santorum, the one who is KNOWN for taking one for the team/GOP. They learned nothing and,thus are not unteachable. The reason why santorum didn't drop out was to prevent Newt from winning against THE TEAM/GOP/Romney.
