[QUOTE="Lurker66, post: 2086501, member: 24459"] So they are "conservatives", just not "strong" conservatives? I see this as the problem with the idea of being conservative. You either meet the criteria or you dont. The "strong" conservatives cannot get elected, due to the uncompromising, extremesist, radical nature of the far right on social issues. The "regular" old conservatives, cant get elected due to the minority of the GOP labeling them as not being "strong" type conservatives. This "split" is why Dems dont have this problem in their party. Next election will bear this out. Either the GOP will nominate a conservative and win or they'll trot out some far right nut or RINO and lose. The Dems will stick with whats worked for them, a liberal with a social agenda. [/QUOTE]
