When is the Republican Party going to realize they have to move on social issues to become electable?

The Republican party has many policies that are attractive to the American public.

Smaller government
Lower taxation
Less regulation & red tape
Fiscal conservatism
Free market economics
Welfare reform

etc. Regardless of your political leanings any intelligent person can see that this is the sort of thing that the Republicans can put to the American people and get a reasonable hearing - they are all reasonable policies that a lot of people would support.

But there's a big elephant in the room - and it's not the one on their logo...

The problem is that to get the former policies enacted, you have to support a party that also has the following policies

Anti-LGBT (Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual/Trans) positions - opposing gay marriage & gay adoption. Opposing anti-discrimination legislation for LGBT people.
Anti-abortion and contraception policies and interference with women's reproductive choices - trying to overturn Roe vs Wade. Forcing mandatory waiting periods and anti-abortion counseling on women seeking abortions. Advocating outright abortion bans, even in the case of incest or rape (which is especially horrific - pregnancy is not risk free - women DIE due to complications of pregnancy or childbirth every year even in the USA - "Well you got raped and got pregnant, now we're going to force you to carry the child to term and if you die in childbirth, tough shit" - how screwed up is THAT?)
Anti-enviromentalism - most people agree that protecting the environment is important, especially for future generations but the Republicans want to drill/mine/rape everything in the name of economic prosperity - a lot of people consider this very short sighted.
Anti-immigration - the extreme rhetoric and borderline racism that comes across from Republicans in this political area turns many people off, and as hispanics are the fastest growing voting demographic it's insanely counter-productive.

I could go own but you get the point. When is the republican party going to understand that if they want the American people to embrace their policies and economic position, they are going to have to jettison their out of date social policies?
