The problem is not that the GOP hasn’t been ‘reaching out’. The problem is that the drive-by media and their cohorts in the entertainment industry are hell-bent on destroying all things conservative AND Republican.
We could have a party filled with John McCain and Arlen Spector types and the enemies of the Republican party would STILL do their best to marginalize them. This has nothing at all do with the GOP’s ability to reach out to different beliefs. This has everything to do with the Republican party allowing itself to be BRANDED by the opposition because they chose to fight with themselves instead of their opponent. Surely there are very specific things within the Republican party that we can all agree on.
LOW taxes? Simplified Taxes? Immigration? Amnesty?
The fact is, the Republicans are not fighting for capitalism, controlled spending, lower taxes. They joined the democrats in socializing this country. Then they allowed their opposition to define them.
You have come to the exact heart of the problem.
