With Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid in charge and the so called "Republican brand" damaged, things look pretty dismal for conservatives.
A few days ago I was listening to a local talk show and a substitute host was wondering where the conservative movement had gone wrong.
He had come to the conclusion that one of the problems was that conservative talk radio had lost it's way. Instead of promoting conservative ideas and discussing in a positive way how our ideas would help the country, they had started criticizing and trying to manipulate the Republican Party. Instead of supporting the conservative members in the Congress and the Senate, they constantly whined about the RINOs. Instead of standing by their own President for the good things that he had accomplished, they had started tearing him apart for things they didn't like.
After 20 plus years of conservative talk radio, conservatives should not be in the position that we are in today. Our President is at an all time low approval rating, the Democrats are in the majority and looking toward gaining seats and the Obama juggernaut with the entire media on his side is probably going to roll over McCain just like he rolled over the Clintons.
The question must be asked: Are conservatives better off today than we were 20 years ago?
