The party should spent more time standing for principles and less time worry about "alienating" people.
There you go HarleyD! Problem solved and stated so simply!
It is the political consultants, the ones paid to get a candidate elected, who worry about that stuff. We need candidates strong enough to tell the consultants to just do the grunt work and let the candidate decide what he believes, not the other way around.
Graham should have been censored for his “angry white male”
remark.
Who is he courting? likely the growing Hispanic population
in Carolina the liberals in the northeast. Most certainly, he does not stand with conservatives.
“The party should spent more time standing for principles and less time worry about “alienating” people.”
You are exactly right. The democrats play the game of race group socialism offering some races preferences over other races and promising to give away free stuff for those of a third world begging peasant mentality.
Hispanics - most - came to this country to make it big. They came to have businesses and to be successful. They came to be free like Americans are free.
The only reason Republicans lost ground is that Rinos started playing race preferences (amnesty) and socialism for votes and stopped talking about reform and expanding liberty and business beyond the banksters’ shake down games. They permitted the Fed. and the banksters to run loan scams on the world set up by Clinton.
We should know better than to pretend there is a free market when there is not a free market because of government interference and intervention. This idea of bi-partisanship is fine for things that do not wreck the country but Republicans should have never gone along with Clinton’s shake down of the banks to give loans to the poor.
