I do not believe a social conservative (i.e. alan keyes, buchanan, any number of others) is electable in the u.s. anymore. Perhaps not today, but if we don't work to get them elected, they never will be electable. We need to start building that structure now, and the Constitution Party is one way of doing that. Besides, if Republicans lose because of conservatives, eventually even The Stupid Party has to get the message that they should stop trying to get elected by going left.

Is getting that message across worth, say, 8 years of Hillary? Can you imagine what she would do with 8 years, a nice patriot act in place, and all kinds of wrongs to right?
I believe that in a country where something like half the voters don't pay ANY taxes, and new voters are being produced by our public indoctrination camps called 'skools,' getting real fiscal (or social) conservatives elected is simply impossible.

Wake up and at leasts attempt to use your brain. Third/fringe parties are for losers. Not voting for a Republican, so as to " teach him ( the party ) a lesson ", does
N-O-T-H-I-N-G , zip, nada, zero, bupkiss, except to aid, abet, and give comfort to the Dems. Maybe you " feel " better/superior/principled; however, the reality of it is, that you've done absolutely nothing at all, to change things nor to further your desires.
The CP doesn't even show up on the vast majority of the populace's radar. It might as well not exist. Neither is it going to ever get anywhere.
