If 30% is a small number to you I'm sorry. How come the Democrats work like hell to keep the black vote, which is roughly 10%. 30% is a huge block and there is no way that 70% of the electorate is rebelling against socons. Abortion is about a 50/50 issue and gay marriage is about 60-70% against, so don't be putting to much blame on the socons.

Part of the problem, to be blunt, is Conservatism has gotten soft and flabby under GWB, people may throw rotten tomatoes at President Bush at the moment, but on pretty much every core social issue, President Bush has done a fine job.

Banning partial birth abortions, no firearms bans, lower taxes, more trade (cough..cough...cough..on that one) and no onerous mandates imposed on small businesses, no environmental over reaches.

We’ve forgotten what it is like to be under the boot of Government, this bickering plays right into the Dhimmicrats hands with an election 8 days away.

“Abortion is about a 50/50 issue ...”

Maybe when querying only the male species. I’d venture to say that a majority of Republican women want the right to choose. And more women then men vote.

And only the moral absolutists like yourself vote only one issue candidates.

Maybe if you all had gotten behind McCain early on like the rest of did instead of trashing him he might have won.
