The Reports of Our Demise Have Been Greatly Exaggerated

Despite Colin Powell’s laughable suggestion that Republican Party needs to drop Conservatism and become “moderates” to win elections (BTW – only an idiot actually believes that the Republican Party is “Conservative,” unless, of course, you are comparing them with the Commie-crats), it seems to me that the winning strategy for the Republican Party should entail courting the single largest ideological group in America – the Conservatives:
