One of the most important concepts in political conservatism is that of a free market. A free market means?

that strong businesses are allowed to prosper and flourish but also that weak businesses are allowed to fail. This is viewed as healthy because strong companies will step in where weak companies failed and make general improvements that will benefit all of society. However in our current economic situation many if not most conservatives (Republicans) voted for the bailout or at least some aspects of it. Does this mean that conservatives (Republicans) no longer stand for a free market? If they don't stand for a free market what do they stand for?
