Hi, baltimore-aureole. I think you miss the point of that sports cliche. I agree many within the Republican Party believe that ideological purity is more important than short-term political gains. However, if they had achieved that purity in their candidates across the board but not won any big races, I don't think they would be quite as happy as they are this morning. In that sense, winning makes it right. Even those favoring ideological purity do so because they think it is best way for the GOP to win again in the long term. Hope that clarifies my position and thanks for replying.
