That’s because too many conservatives are either purists, or combative, chest puffing, dick measuring blowhards who want to leverage their candidate to grab party control and satisfy their delusions of grandeur, instead of just getting a decent conservative candidate elected by siding with the best one.
Anyone who takes marching orders from the Chamber of Amnesty is not a “decent conservative”. “Decent conservative” corportist GOPe are the ones standing by while we are assaulted by the IRS, assaulted by obamacare and economically assaulted by illegal immigration.
FRiend, if you going to advocate for GOPe statists then you need to own their agenda. All of it. Amnesty, obamacare exemptions, gay marriage, etc.
Nice try at being slick, but don’t insult my intelligence with the crappy red herring. There appears to be two conservatives in this race, and nobody could coalesce around one of them. Happens over and over and over again, because of the reasons I mentioned.
I’ve done this game too long, and I know the reason people support loser candidates for the better one, if not for the purity, it’s because they want to be in the inner circle and leverage that to some kind of party power broker status after that. Even if that candidate wins it rarely ever happens that the delusions of grandeur work out that way.
