Well I don’t know what state you are in but they say you get the govt you deserve.

I can tell you in GA we are not going to let Jimmy Carter’s grandson become Governor just because Nathan Deal isn’t uber conservative and we are not going to let Sam Nunn’s ding dong daughter become senator because the GOP guy isn’t a right wing rad.

The truth of the matter is that the average American is now and always has been fairly middle of the road. They don’t vote too far right. You and I are in the minority and frustrating as that may be its not likely to change.

Your "truth" has some glaring holes in it.

30% of the citizens in this country during the Revolutionary War were the ones that supported and fought the War and gave us this country we have.

Reagan won two elections being "Far Right".

I don't live my life or my politics by pragmatism or polls.

If you really believe in being a conservative, best to fight for it completely or just sit on the sidelines.

In part, you are part of the problem since you willing accept and roll over for waht the GOP-E gives you instead of just saying no.
