4 Reasons The GOP Would Be Foolish To Dump Social Issues

Posted on by John Hawkins

Win, lose or draw, we’re always supposedly hitting a tipping point where social issues just no longer work for the Republican Party.

To appeal to black voters, GOP must run gauntlet of racism accusations

Posted on by Jonah Goldberg

If the GOP wants to win more black votes, it will need to get a lot more “racist.” The scare quotes are necessary because I don’t think the Republican Party is racist now (and, historically, the GOP has a lot less to answer for than the Democratic Party does). But that hasn’t stopped a lot […]
