The problem I keep noting is that the "hard line" conservatives who consider themselves the "real repubs" see the political world as black or white and can never allow for the conservatives who don't share every single conservative value they espouse. Like prochoice repubs or repubs who believe in some of the welfare state and repubs who don't want the Ten Commandments in courthouse lobbys. They castigate any of them. And the two earner republican family exists and wants s ome help with day care expenses whether anyone likes it or not and they will get it and the party that helps provide it will get votes. The hard liners would rather lose than modify their stances. And they are very tough on what they call RINOs.

Re your post #224, that one of the (if not THE) most significant reasons why Republicans have been losing in this state. To put it quite bluntly, we are constantly at war with one another rather than with the real enemy.
