As what?
The only reason he couldn't win was because everyone was saying he couldn't win.
It couldn't have had anything to do with the fact that he had NO experience, could it?
If all the real conservatives who supported Bush had worked to get Alan elected I daresay things would be a little different.
But they didn't, did they? Does that make them NOT real conservatives because they didn't vote for Keyes?
Keyes should be happy he has a show on TV -- for now.
He failed miserably, even as a Senate candidate. What LarryLied said is also true - many conservatives simply don't like or trust him. I think his lack of success may also have to do with the fact that he is a very divisive figure, and that most people probably fear his all-or-nothing approach. The guy is simply unelectable.
