So the Redumblicans are out crying in the wilderness, rending clothes and hair, keening their losses and wondering "Why? Why?" Conference here, conference there, some naval gazing, and presto, solutions abound- "We need to appeal to the young!" "We need to attract the moderates!" "We need a bigger tent!"
Oy.
The only thing you "need" is a gigantic boot up the bum. Maybe that will jar your memory, wake you up a bit, remind you of something- you're the last bastion of conservatism. You're the only place left where conservatives, dying as we are by the millions, have a voice. And in case you've forgotten (which, it seems you have) let me remind you what conservatism is:
a. The individual has primacy over the state
b. Rights derive from God, not society, and
c. Natural law is the only judicial measure.
Try that. Try espousing that. You know what will happen? All those young, black, Hispanic, gay and moderate whatevers will flock to you. 'Cause everyone wants to be an American. Not a demographic.
