It's more profitable for them to get the base riled up about those damn sponging poors than to consider the effect their <A HREF="http://www.whas11.com/topstories/stories/101607whasmjdTopMcConnell.177d6f3a0.html" REL="nofollow">words and actions have on the reputation of conservatives</A>, and how that effect hurts conservatives' ability to get elected.<BR/><BR/>What's sad is that so many elected conservative politicians still believe it's in their interest to brown nose rightwing entertainers who simply give conservatives a bad image.
