Long history of failure there...”
I meant to say we have NOT tried conservatism since 1988.
The failure has been the neutered brand of Republican party that has been in effect since that time.
Other than the Republicans fighting Clinton after the 1994 election, conservatism has largely been dead, due to woosies in the Republican party who have never had the backbone to stick with it.
It has been the lack of conservatism, not the use and failure of it that has been the problem.
