Sure there are the fanatics that would also support bringing back alcohol prohibition (just as there are 'save just one child' liberals), but at the end of the day if our goal is to have free market poker rather than State ran monopoly poker, it will take support from both sides of the aisle.
This is just plain denial. I understand you don't want your party controlled by these fanatics, but your wish, and reality, are at odds at this time in our history. These kind of fanatics are not few in number. They would have given Santorum the nomination if he had not descended into complete idiocy during the Michigan primary. And if they were really few in number, they would not have gotten this plank through.
Maybe, hopefully, the money interests will win out, but that does not mean fanatics, in both parties, are few. They are many.
