Heard this line of thought in dealing with the democrats 1990, 1992, 1996, 1998, 2000, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2012. Now I will concede we won in 2000-2004, but literally by the skin of our teeth. In 1994 conservative came out in force against Clinton and the RINO’s rolled with the win until we started pushing against RINO agenda. In 2002 we picked up some seats purely on 9/11 emotion and the rest of those years we followed the liberal establishments advice, how has that worked out for us?
Had the Congress conceded this time and rolled over yet again those 2014 dreams of big wins would be just that and still may be depending on how this plays out. The conservative base, continually bit*hed slapped by the RINO’s and Party Boys and then told it was the conservatives fault they lose every time isn’t going to cut it anymore. The base is not prepared to take another beating from the RINO’s and is in a very ugly and unforgiving mood. RINO’s take heed.
2004 was a BIG win, because W was smart enough not to completely aliente centrists while still pursuing a conservative tax cutting agenda (see the 2003 tax cuts)
2006 was much more a result of Iraq War fatigue and corruption scandals in the White House
2008 was seriously bad headwinds.
2012 was having a completely ineffective candidate at the top.
Again, we can go back to being the people who set the agenda, or be resigned to those who obstruct the agenda.
This is a long war and picking the right battles is key. Suicide missions are just stupid, as this will prove when the House caves and the Senate is lost again in 2014

But this time it will work.
And Romney can win.
