It is important to recognize that conservatives are a minority among self-identified “Republicans”, whereas communists are the majority among the Democrats.
I believe a conservative could be elected President - but not as a Republican.
BINGO.
Talk to anyone on the street and say ‘Republican”. you get dirty looks. Why? Republicans earned it. The name is an Albatross because the Republicans themselves destroyed it. They let the Dems rewrite history and then became Dems themselves.
this is why Cruz, Lee, Palin and the remaining conservatives HAVE to leave that faild fiasco. THEN people will look at them without the stink of the GOP.
