At one point in time I supported a conservative candidate regardless of party…now I won't vote for anyone associated with Democrat Party since it only empowers people like Reid and Pelosi.
I believe there is still hope for the Republican Party...
The challenge ahead is to wake people up to the fact that they have traded privacy for "security" and then get them to act in order to get the political machines to restore privacy (since the courts don't seem to be doing this).
The left has done a great job in confusing labels. By the left's definition, Leftwing is hardcore communism, rightwing is fascism and the middle is socialism or progressivism (regressivism?). It leaves no place for conservatives who believe in freedom nor does it allow for libertarians (who the left sees as mentally ill).
A better model would be total control at the far left and total individualism to the far right (near anarchy). In the middle would be progressivism (a form a fascism mixed neo paganism) to the left center and conservativism (firm belief in individual rights with a some social control) to the right center.
The best model measures in three axis. But is too complex for most people.
