The base showed up in 2008. You said the base didn't show up again. Try to pay attention to previous comments you made.
What makes you think the base showed up in 2008?
Hmm? We have more gay marriage and even some weed legislation. Seems pretty progressive to me. Citizens only vote on state issues, not Congressional ones.
Seems more libertarian to me, but to each their own.
Anyhow, your point about the Republicans needing to run a 'true' conservative to win has no basis since you don't believe they've actually run one in the past 50 years
Your words, certainly not mine.
The Republican party needs to appeal to new demographics, not listen to you.
The Republican Party simply needs to appeal to its own core demographics. It ain't hard.
