“Conservatives cannot win without the Republican party and the Republican party cannot win only with conservatives. Everything else is commentary….”

Corrected for the political realities.

I think Grover is wrong.

Conservatives do not need the Republican Party to win. In fact, the GOP has been a serious drag on the conservative movement.

Grover Norquist isn't Jewish. He's a crypto-islamist that endangered his country by infiltrating terrorists into the White House.

Now that Hillary qualifies as a moderate Democrat reminds me of what Barry Goldwater once said to Bob Dole: “Who ever would have guessed we’d be the moderates?”

This is also true for the Democrats. I am a Democrat. Just as there are 2 camps in the Republicans, there are 2 camps in the Democrats. There are the left-wing loonies who are now in power, and the moderates represented by Bayh, Nelson, and Hillary. We moderates do not like being in the same party as the left-wing loonies, but that’s the reality. I voted for McCain because he’s closer to a moderate Democrat than Obama.

The conservatives, like Palin and Romney, have to share the party with McCain and Snowe. Each party could split in 2 so we have 4 parties, but we’re stuck with 2 parties, each with 2 camps who don’t get along. I will happily vote Democrat again when the moderates take control of my party. I suspect that will happen in 2012 when Hillary will make another run.

Amen, btw, was Grover ever Jewish, cuz that line “Everything else is commentary’ is a very Jewish line, wasn’t it Hillel who said it first?
