Problem is that he will have to act like a right wing extremist nut job to win the primary. Same thing happen to Romney. He was a fiscal conservative / social moderate but had to act extreme to win the repub primary as everyone criticized him for not being conservative enough. He won the primary but lost the moderate vote. He could have easily won the presidency if he didnt have to change his beliefs to win the primary. Sad but true. As long as the party is dominated by extremists we will not take back the presidency.
As long as Republican Candidates have to act like something they are not the Republican party is done. Liberals claiming to be conservative so that they can espouse their talking points Are only a problem to other liberals and very low information voters.
On the other Hand.. Picker made a greaty point! "As long as the party is dominated by extremists we will not take back the presidency." Although he does not understand extremism, if the Republican Party was mostly conservative, and a large portion of the country is, then a truly conservative candidate would do very well!
