Because the real conservatives in the US political spectrum are the Democrats who are trying to hold onto a centuries worth of political tradition. Modern "conservatives" are in line to become the next Supreme Soviet with party purity being the prime definition of what it means to be a Republican, rather than any belief in principles. Just look at how the Ron Paul contingent got the boot from the GOP convention. They are arguably truer "conservatives" than the Republican party has become and their dissenting viewpoints simply will not be allowed.
And there is no organized "left" in American politics no matter how much money GOP organizers and corporate think tanks pump out that meme throughout the culture to keep the fear levels jacked up.
High on corruption, high on violence, high on fear - your radical republican party. Nothing conservative about it.

- Democrats are certainly corrupt, but they aren't crazy, nor are they approaching Soviet levels of purity.TheBlueOne
