To win we should focus on the issue that unites the greatest number in opposing our common enemy.

Without social conservatives, the Republican will lose by default.

I don’t care if someone is a flaming whatever that supports abortion and gay marriage, if they will vote against big government and throw the bums out in November, I welcome their vote.

We've tried the fiscal conservative/social liberal Republican (See RINOLD in CA) before. It has failed miserably. At the least, I will accept a Governor McDonnell of Virginia campaign strategy of proudly stating his social conservatism but focused on taxes and spending. However, any Republican that de-emphasizes abortion and homosexual marriage might as well concede before the votes are counted.

Not saying that. That's for the primaries.

I'm saying nationalize the congressional races around the economy, small government, liberty, throw out Pelosi and Reid, dump Obamacare etc.

Run on the issues that have the best chance of landslide win.
