Ideology over Strategy

Submitted by Unreconstructed on Tue, 09/04/2012 - 13:28. Permalink

For Romney and the Republicans, the strategic move would have been to ally with the Ron-Paul faction, but the Republicans chose ideological purity over strategy. Republicans, founded in the 1850s as the party of mass murder and economic exploitation, want neoconservatives in their ranks, not libertarians.
