Yeah, I wanted to call in and explain to him that Romney would be “Dole II”. He kept saying what a nice guy he is. Yeah, so was Jimmy Carter.

He kept saying it would be historically unprecedented for him to win like it was a reason for him to run. That really cracked me up. There is a reason it is historically unprecedented.

But the sad thing is that our country is so far gone that such candidates look good.

What I really wanted to say to Medved was that it is clear that the problem is not the candidates we have. Rather, it is their chances of winning based on their beliefs.

i.e. the problem is the electorate.

i.e. the problem is the electorate.

You were right the first time: the problem is the "moderate" left candidates will lose based on their beliefs. The electorate will snub them.

i.e., the solution is the electorate.

That is, given elections where photo ID is required, legal citizen status is required, and dead votes, vote ginning, harvesting votes from old folks homes and living facilities for the mentally challenged, and other fraudulent or ginned fake "electorate" factors are weeded out. Then I do believe indeed, the electorate would vote in the solution.

In fact, it's almost certainly true, otherwise the left wouldn't have to cheat.

Forgot to add -- the solution is the electorate, providing they have a candidate to vote for who has the right beliefs. As you noted, the problem is that candidates like Romney, Bush, Dole, McCain, will lose based on their beliefs.

We need a candidate that will win based on his beliefs -- a candidate that the electorate will endorse.
