re: #58 ausador

Your talking about the people who insist they lost the last election because McCain was a RINO and not “conservative” (Re: bigoted and religiously fanatical) enough. Until they get absolutely humiliated in an election while backing a candidate of their choice they are just going to keep on blaming everyone but themselves. Somehow contrary to all evidence they believe that if they can just get all the white evangelicals to vote as a block that they can win. Apparently they have not looked at any demographic polls since the 50s or something…

As a conservative who held his nose and voted for McCain I find your comment way off mark. First, conservatives hardly have a monopoly on bigotry. Second, there are substantive reasons why I and many conservatives did not have McCain as our first choice. Immigration reform comes to mind. Thirdly, if you check, you will find there have been a few Republican presidents over the last 50 years.
