The ultimate question that all "conservatives" should ask themselves: "Do we want a democrat candidate to be in the White House because we do not like the Republican candidate?". It is a very simple question and the answer for it is very simple yes or no. I hope that vast, vast, vast majority will answer "NO".

Doesn't matter how you and I answer personally, when the conservative base and the grassroots are turned off by the candidate and or party policies we get losses like 1992 and 1996, barely get by like 2000, 2004 and disasters like 2006. We cannot afford a repeat of 1992, 1996 or a continuation of the 2006 debacle. We must field a candidate that unites and ignites the base and the grassroots. It can and must happen.

Let's get through the primaries...then we can answer that question....on your other points...think of what Reagan was up against back in the 80's...no talk radio and very little conservative media voices...you are correct that we have a lot going our way these days as far as media is concerned...that's why Bush is such a disappointment....the man can't communicate a solid vision....he's not running(obviously)... electing a strong conservative may not be enough....he HAS to communicate a vision....i'm not stoked on anybody at the moment...we still have time and i am glad that we are doing our bickering and name tossing now while it's early :)
