Things are only going to get worse for the conservative movement
I've encountered young conservatives off of the internet, they're as right wing as the day is long, but at the same time they have that idealism and sense of reality that is shared with the rest of their generation. They are turned off by things like racism, callousness, misogyny, extreme homophobia, etc. They think people like Ann Coulter are idiots to put it basically.

You can't expect to win over this generation and at the same time have this...

"Who really cares what Hollywood thinks? All these hacks come out there. Hollywood is controlled by secular Jews who hate Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular. It's not a secret, okay? And I'm not afraid to say it."
- Bill Donohue, Catholic League

"If you're not a born-again Christian, you're a failure as a human being."
- Jerry Falwell

"Unless we get medically lucky, in three or four years, one of the options discussed will be the extermination of homosexuals."
- Paul Cameron, Family Research Institute

"We just want to show these people their sins and lead them down the right path."
- Lou Sheldon, Traditional Values Coalition, saying this as his goons were about to throw urine filled balloons at people attending a gay pride festival

Republicans: You can reject these dinosaurs or you can go extinct with them.

And Democrats: You didn't win because people hated Bush, you won because the youth believed your promises. You better stick to them, we registered Democrats will vote for you in 2010 and 2012, but there is no guarantee that they will.
