“We need a fresh young face with a brilliant mind, articulate speech who speaks the conservative principles in an inspiring confident manner.”

Most people have never heard of one, and that is how the likes of McCain get to call themselves "conservative". Between the MSM and the schools it is a small wonder so many people are ignorant of conservative principles.
