This aricle is full of wisdom and common sense.
All one has to do is realize how delighted we (conservatives) are when the libs are terribly fractured by in-fighting. We delight in it because it makes them a much weaker force to reckon with.
We have our foot solidly in the door and we need to take advantage of every opportunity; big or small.
The unreasonable purists who demand the impossible or turn off the less conservatively inclined are an anchor around conservatism's neck.
It's about time a few unyielding minds realize that it is not a compromise of one's principles to gently pull others along and be patient. Sometimes that means you have to give a little to get a little.
All or nothing is a losing proposition in our diverse society.
Great post. ;-)
