Anyway I raised the question. Is the term "real conservative" being used by distinctly different groups. I'm pretty sure Coulter and Limbaugh operate under it. And a bunch of people that have the abortion and gay marriage stances but don't support larger government.

.
Coulter endorsed Hillary Clinton over John McCain, she is FAR from being a "real" conservative, and Rush Limbaugh is way too far right.

Understand that most talk-news hosts are out to stir drama for ratings. O'Reily, Hannity, Limbaugh, etc. They appeal to angry, white, Republican men who need a voice.

Please observe this article for better understanding.
