The race for the Republican presidential nomination began 

in May, 2011, and lasted until the Republican National 

Convention in August, 2012, when Mitt Romney was 

officially nominated. That's 16 long months. And yet, 

in light of Mitt Romney's recent slide in the polls, 

Joe Scarborough is now saying, "A real conservative 

would be winning now." So, tell us Joe, where are these 

'real conservatives' and where have they been keeping 

themselves for the past year and a half?
