This is the reason for the Republican collapse in a nutshell: Rockefeller Republicans want to compromise with socialism, while religious conservatives want to ignore capitalism in order to focus on their religious agenda.
Reagan built the Republican majority primarily on the anti-government backlash caused by the economic failure of the welfare state. Until the Republicans once again commit themselves to free markets, small government, and balanced budgets, they deserve to be out of power. If we’re going to have the country run into the ground by a bunch of big-spending, nanny-state socialists, let them be Democrats.
