The conservative movement is flagging because the Republicans have been anything but. Farm bills stuffed with pork, expansion of the federal government in education and socialized medicine, preposterous ethanol subsidies, and a ruinous deficit are not conservative at all. They are Republican (with a capital R), though. Add to that scandal, perceived pandering to big business, inflation, and expensive, open-ended military adventures overseas–conservativism don’t look so great. The Republicans must be punished.
