I am not shilling for Romney or for McCain. I am simply pointing out that if you fail to win the majority you have no chance of doing anything which will move the conservative agenda to the forefront. You have bupkis.
All you have then is 2 or 4 or 6 years of screeds decrying the lack of purity in the Republican party. Nothing more than parlor games.
Get involved and change things from the bottom up. The Repubkican party has the most trouble filling precinct chairmanships. That is a good place to to start. Precinct chairmen vote on the party platform and they can make a huge difference.
