It's all BS. "Social fundamentalist" issues were not on the table this election. McCain ignored them. The authors' basic premise is totally irrelevant to the recent election, just as they themselves have been irrelevent to the party these many yeas.

When the GOP cannot motivate the social conservative folk, the people don’t go vote. Sarah got some folks out that wouldn’t have come out otherwise. Moderates didn’t stay home. They voted for Obama, because at least his snake oil was the genuine democratic article, not a GOP imitation.

Real attracts more than imitation. We have to offer a real option, and not an imitation democrat to win. What the article is recommending is more imitation democrat stance.
