I am not a libertarian, but you accuse conservatives like myself of infiltrating what’s left of a political force. What political force would that be?
The GOP left conservatives, like me and many there, just like the DNC left Ronald Reagan. The GOP leadership does not care one iota for conservatives and want to marginalize us.
If the GOP leadership wants me and many other conservatives on their side, they will have to start moving back to the right instead o lurching hard to left. The days of “pulling the lever for the GOP guy because if I don’t the Democrat wins, are over. If the GOP candidate does not hold my beliefs at heart, he or she is not going to get my vote...period.
So you say...I’ve seen the very same retort more times than I can recall every single time someone mentions that “L” word...
I agree that there are only traces (depending on where you hang your hat) of conservatism in the ranks of republican elected officials, but where else are YOU looking???
I bet it gets even more thin wherever that may be...
You keep looking...We’ll keep working...
