I don't think it's so simple as we pretend anymore. Left wing does not
neccesarily mean Republican and that doesn't nessesarily connote
Conservatism anymore. 30 years ago If one was a Republican it was sure thing
they were conservative and right wing. Does anyone, anymore know what in the
hell a Republican is? I honestly can't tell anymore what Republicanism is
other than confused.

Unlike periods in the past where R's were unified under central
message and leadership, they now goosestep in multiple directions
following a variety of religious, cultural and political leaders.

The baptists who were against abortion woke up and found themselves in
bed with war mongers. Promsies to evangelists were discovered to be
lip service. The incloosion illoosion lasted about 10 minutes.

They're going to have to find some honest platform upon which to run
or risk being marginalized for many election cycles.
