First you need to differentiate conservatives from NeoCons...they are not one in the same, even if they align under the same political banner as Republicans.
Conservative talk show hosts are anything but true conservatives...they pander to the same politically motivated and active demographic that resulted in the current NeoCon control of the Republican Party, Executive & Legislative branches...a demographic fixated on a few hot button topics that, at the end of the day, really don't effect most Americans on a day to day basis.
The Democrats have their fair share of cheerleaders too, similarly aligned to insignificant but nonetheless polarizing political topics.
Most true conservatives do not agree with either the NeoCons or their radio talk show cheerleaders. However, many conservatives also feel estranged from the Democratic Party...sometimes it is easier to vote for the devil you know instead of the devil you don't trust.
