This is the old ongoing argument to set aside conservative principles to win elections. Principles are always postponed until after the next election.

When do principles begin to matter?

If conservatives vote for candidates to get them elected but never have the satisfaction of the elected politician acting as a conservative, why bother?

Good questions. I've been asking the same thing for a long time. If Conservatives keep caving, the GOP has no reason to change.

The GOP use the same "woo and screw" tactics on Conservatives that the Dem Party uses on blacks: woos them during the election cycle, then screws them after the vote. Without benefit of a ring.
