My obviously right-wing slant on CPC leadership
Being right about the economy doesn't allow you to be wrong about everything else. When the CPC focuses on ridiculous 'social issues' like what somebody chooses to wear and playing on fear rather than on responsible economic policies, they will certainly lose. When any political party plays solely to a faction of their base they have no chance of winning with the general voters. Anyone that believes in a conservative economic action plan needs to make sure the party has learned this lesson and moving forward works towards combining good economic decision making with smart, relevant social understanding/policy. Today's leaders are energetic, positive, accepting, progressive people - exactly the opposite of how the CPC leadership ran this campaign. Whomever it is, I look forward to the day the CPC has leadership whose ideas are worth getting excited about again.
