I realize that you’re not going to have a 100% purely conservative party. But doing what we can, including supporting legit conservatives in the primaries, and/or at least not pitching their RINO counterparts (Sarah) would help us to deliver a message.
I think we need to be willing/disciplined to do that.
If you (or anyone else...) wants to pull in the numbers of supporters and voters like Reagan did, you won't find with that crowd that you had anywhere near a 100% purely conservative party, per the voters who put Reagan in office.
He managed to get the voters who weren't anywhere near 100% pure on conservative issues and did a fine job of it.
The way it's going with some conservative FReepers that I've seen posting on candidates with conservative values (like towards Sarah Palin), these same ones would kick Reagan out of the party, too... LOL...

I get that, especially in the general elections. Listen I worked for the McLame campaign...because I viscerally opposed the socialist tyranny (although many would say my efforts were futile, and perhaps they were right!)
But I’m talking about the primaries Star...this is where we need to deliver our disciplined conservative message...
