I'm sorry Panzer, but this is what I have talked about a few times. There really are no "conservative" leaders in the Republican party. They throw a couple of good candidates your way, but then heavily marginalize them (lol Ron Paul gets this the worst) to keep you voting for them, in hopes that next time one of them will win. The frontrunners are all ideologically crazy or hacks that completely abuse the rhetoric of conservatism's classical origins and don't adhere to it in any way and instead follow an authoritarian, religious based doctrine which is what the base is.
You don't have a party PJ. Just look at the difference between Barry Goldwater and Michell Bachmann. They are worlds apart, and you will not be finding your next great conservative leader until you kick out the religious.
