As a Republican I have gotten to a point where I can really feel the hardcore conservatives hurting the cause. The abortion thing is one of the main things making us look like bafoons. You are going to have to just drop it. I've always been open to choice on abortions, and at one point was even for mandatory forced abortions for people on welfare, but then realized that was kinda facist. Just a little.
Abortions are going to happen, no sense fighting it or even talking about it. The courts decided it in Roe v Wade years ago, it ain't going to change. So stick to the fiscal stuff.
There are other social conservative things that hurting us to, but I think the biggest one is abortion.
The liberals got the media and most of the idiot college crowd in the tank and they always play that damned abortion card. It's played, trumped, folded and called. Time to just accept it. If someone wants to us abortion as birth control so be it, as long as their check clears, go for it. Hell, sell the remains on ebay, lot of freaks out there.
If we could just concede this one issue it would help a lot.
And for those hardcore thumpers that have killed our conservative movement who say every life is precious, what about ME and the other republicans who are getting high blood pressure and anger issues over you allowing all these jackball democrats in control? How many lives could we save getting back to the good old days of the 1950's (without the institionalized racism of course)
