How do you know that?
It is all too easy for us hard Conservatives to forget that we do not represent the mainstream of American politics. Forget about right and wrong. In elections, votes count and nothing else does. When we nominate someone who cannot be elected in the General Election, all we do is usher in an easy victory for the Dems.... and that is exactly what the Dems hope for.
The time to educated the voters for the need for hard Conservatives is long before the election. If we don't do that, and we just say “If our hard Conservative doesn't get nominated, we're going to sit home on election day,” then we are paving the way for an Obama with nothing to lose because he cannot be elected again.
Also, remember, the Dems know this and FR is fully penetrated by Dem trolls who will try to discourage us from voting for the Republican candidate because he isn't "Conservative enough.”
