Your perfect candidate, one that also can win sufficient votes to be elected simply doesn't exist or if those type of candidates do exist they are not interested. Way too many 'conservatives' are holding out for the perfect candidate and voting all over the map, as you have outlined - independents like you.
Unfortunately, it's people like you that tend to direct and indirectly get liberals elected. Very sad. Compromise is not a necessity or quality that you can understand. Good luck with that approach - I actually hope that you and people like you 'win' something. But, that's doubtful.

I tend to agree. California's Republican Party is splitting at the seams over this same scenario. I'm a conservative at heart, but getting someone voted into state-wide office requires a moderate persona given the Democrat popular majority, whether we like it or not.
