I suppose we have our own ‘Taliban’ wing.

I wouldn't call them that, though I *would* refer to them as our "Daily KOS" wing - a small but vocal group of people who are completely unsatisfied with a candidate or politician unless that candidate or politician agrees with them, personally, 150% of the time. Unfortunately, because the members of this small but vocal group are usually some conglomeration of kooks and wackos (think: Buchananites, RonPaulians, etc.), there are almost no candidates or politicians who can hope to get more than 1-2% in a general election who will make these folks happy, so we have to hear their constant screeching.

A guideline for the conservative movement as we move forward is that we need to support real conservatives (i.e. people like DeMint, Palin, Hayworth, Rubio, Toomey, etc.) while avoiding the obvious fruits, flakes, kooks, and weirdos out there who want to try to present themselves as the Only True Conservatives (tm).

I don't agree. We do have our own "Kamikaze wing" though.
