Has conservatism abandoned winning in the short to mid term?

How can Sarah Palin be invited to the main event on the year's big Cpack event, and a moderate Republican who is pro life, anti union, reduced state workers, and is fiercely independent in the vein of the libertarian branch of the Republican party.......people are saying that Christy is short lived to be in the Republican Party.......they have lost their fricking minds, and will it take losing the house in 2014 before these bozos who have lost 5 out of the last 6 elections........Republicans know that we should not be doing the S, and they sure know that some of the invitees to this convention are freaks.......

How can moderate fiscal conservative Republicans who are socially moderate find a home when the crazies have overstayed their welcome?

Actually it's mind boggling to invite Sarah Palin, Rick Santorum, Ted Cruz . . . . . to the CPAC's main event . . . . . . it is a testament of the power of AM talk radio et al El Rushbo . . . .

I think we have entered the twilight zone where the media is the message....where the likes of Rush and his ratings have become more important than the average American and their well being. This nihilist mind boggling transition of American politics has got to return to common sense if this nation is going to find our way out of this very dark period in our history.
