This is an age old question for Republicans. Do we get someone elected who will vote for conservative principles, in the face of strong controversial press coverage, or, do we get someone elected who is decidedly un-controversial, and may not support a good portion of what is conservative in nature?

Do we get a sure majority that ensures the prevention of wild eyed Democrat, far left policy, but allows for a great deal of improper policy, that looks decidedly Democrat-lite?

Or, do we go for the brass ring, running real conservatives that, should they win, ensure solid conservative voting?

Clearly, the former is a delaying strategy, unlikely to EVER yield positive results, rather, aimed at mitigating negative results. The latter is the goal, though it brings some risk.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. McConnell is only interested in playing safe, not getting results. What say you?
