TX Yank: Abortion is wrong and the laws--on the national level--need to protect the unborn. Screw the media and their club. We must not surrender on this issue. What people do in the privacy of their own homes is, arguably, their business, but marriage is very much a public concern. Small government is fine, but what T. S. Eliot called the Permanent Things are basic.

Stop the insanity of 75 candidate primaries. The Ron Pauls, Gary Johnsons, and Michelle Bachmanns are NOT going to win, and serve only to prolong the process and bloody the eventual winner. If Romney had been able to start his fall campaign in the spring, we might have had a different resuly. Insted, we fought and destroyed each other long past the time when it was productive.

These are days of hindsight and second-guessing for Republicans, which is human nature after a trauma like this election loss.
There are million “why” theories out there, from the Hurricane Sandy effect to pernicious media bias. Wringing our hands over those factors gets us nowhere.
We can’t stop hurricanes, and media bias is always there. Reagan and Bush 43 won twice against waves of poisonous bias, so that is not an insurmountable obstacle.
What Republicans need is a slate of candidates that can energize the base while expanding the appeal of a conservative message.
Easy...
