Comments R Me: Not Conservative [ Enough ]?

Here's what I wrote in the comments on a post by Baldilocks:

Can anyone tell me why they think [ Ken ] Blackwell is more conservative than Steele?

Is it that Steele doesn't want to toss moderates? Can a Texas style conservative win in Rhode Island?

Is it that he spoke fact when he said, right now, like it or not, to get an abortion is a choice?

Is it that Steele wants to go after the minority vote and that is some how distasteful? What about Blackwell boasting that he received 50% of the Black vote when he ran for mayor? Or what about Blackwell publicly stating that if the GOP wants to target the Black vote, why hasn't he received any calls on how to go about it, when he got 50% of the Black vote?

As far as Blacks and the GOP and the GOP's attitude towards Black voters, J.C. Watts made the same commentary as Steele. In fact, Watts selection as a Republican leader in the House was seen as an affirmative action selection by some in the House.

Steele is Dead Man Walking but the comments that Steele isn't "conservative enough" by implication is a lot of bunk.

So how "conservative" does a person have to be before they are acceptable as being "conservative"?

What is the dividing line?

When you have the division of "conservative" as being neo-conservative and paleo-conservative, that lets me know the definition of "conservative" by so-called conservatives is a bunch of baloney.
