You know good and well why they vote for the Democrats. It's called disinformation and propaganda by the avid America haters and special interest groups, not to mention the media.

I could go on and on, but you don't seem to realize that what you are advocating is not a solution, but a continual decline in the Republican plaform.

Pandering Alienates Conservatives, not to mention those who may be legal immigrants. Furthermore, when you're supporting law-breaking, the Republicans cannot win through such a stand.

What has to be done is that Conservatives need to speak out when confronted with the nonsense argument of "racist". That's a Marxist tool, and we all know it. You can't show that you're afraid of that, for they feed off of that. You have to shove the argument back in their faces, state the facts, and show them for who they are. Furthermore, all this timidity is downright embarrassing. A conservative coaltion is what needs to be in the works, and I think that we can still take this country back if we have the courage to do so. However, the neo-con influence is strong, and they have to be weeded out or marginalized.

Yeah, sure. And how do we get past the disinformation of the media? How do we prove they are liars?

You make it sound simple, and it isn't. A conservative could come up with a cure for AIDS, cancer, and the common cold, and we'd still be called racist.

Welcome to reality. We've got to be able to sell our position to people, and be VERY good at it. Unfortunately, there were major mis-steps in the past, and as such, the hard-line tactics can't be sold without costing us more in the long run. Morris has come up with a plan that might need some tweaking, but it's a lot better than what Tancredo's come up with.

How much of the vote did Pat Buchanan get again? Less than one percent, IIRC.
