I agree that an avowed athiest could probably never win a national or statewide election in either party.
Can a gay Republican win a primary in in statewide-elective office? I dont think so.
Can a pro-choice Republican survive a primary? Perhaps in a few states, but dont count on it.
Would Senate Republicans elect a pro-choice leader in the same manner as the Democrats elected a pro-life leader (Harry Reid). No way.

I am republican and I really don't care if a person is gay, or an atheist. I think viable fetuses should have a right to live. When I have discussions with Republicans we talk about the issues, more times than not liberals focus on identity politics.
