Question to all; If a true right wing, Christian conservative can’t win a primary election or party nomination, how could he/she win a general election?
The unpopular but correct answer is that if they can’t, and we ‘have’ to elect a liberal claiming to be a conservative just to mark one in the win category, then the country you and I grew up in is over. The liberals demonstratively won.
There is no way around that.
So the question is then which of a person’s morals/principles is for sale to get that oh so important WINO (win in name only)? We will have determined what that person is. We just need to negotiate the price.
Because if you give up your principles to win, you haven’t ‘won’ a damn thing even if your candidate gets elected.
You must show the begining part of your statement is TRUE; before we can make an assessment of the latter conundrum.
