    Evidence? (none / 0) (#7)
    by Conservative First on Thu Sep 01, 2011 at 07:00:28 PM EST
    Don't confuse what you believe with what the majority of voters believe.

    This has been studied a lot, and social conservatism is consistently more popular than fiscal conservatism.  You may not care about social issues, but lots of people do.

    The abortion issue benefits Republicans because more people base their votes on being pro-life than being pro-abortion.  People have voted for the traditional definition of marriage every time it has been on the ballot.

    It is quite possible that social conservatism helps to elect fiscal conservatives who wouldn't otherwise win.  Practically every strong fiscal conservative in Congress is also a social conservative, but not conversely.
