man this he wasn't conservative enough issue is nonsense if they picked a big conservative it would have been a 10 point lose. It was already a mandate youwould make it a "Reagan like landslide" Go ahead pick a big conservative in 2012 it will be another loss. Right now the republican party is inshambles and the two biggest names I have heard for 2012 is Jeb Bush (that will be game over before the conventions) and Sarah Palin which would be a mistakebecause she is a big reason McCain lost..
This is not a center right country it is a center left country based on the past 2 election cycles. If you want to call it center fine we can say that.
But hardcore conservatism does not work with this country, a moderate is and always will be best chance for Republicans. Because as the years pile on 2012,2016, 2020 this country will become more and more liberal/progressive.
If you want to think conservatism is what this country likes then go ahead and fool yourself into it. Drive that thought and your party off a cliff.
