Good ideas, yes the GOP has to be reformed. Don't know if it is possible or not. What with the GOP-e's attitude towards Conservatives and Tea Party People, I will not be part of the laughing stock that votes for Romney. The best way to show the Republican party leaders that they must stop running RINO's and liberals is to not vote for them. I voted for Sarah the last time around, but McCain and Romney (yes his people were on McCain's staff) snookered any chance she had to influence them by viciously attacking her (mostly backstabbing, one of Romney's specialities) so she would be marginalized. Along with the Tea Party Movement and Conservativism in general.

Voting for Romney is the same as voting for a weak and ineffictive party machine. And they are laughing at all who do. Not me.

Third party movements have not done well in this country. They usually end up helping the other side as will be likely be the case this year, at least at the National/Presidential level.

Where the Tea Party has succeeded is at the local level and in the primaries. The next Congress will have a stronger Tea Party contingent and many state legislatures will be changed for the good. The Republican Party is being shaped by this movement, but from the bottom up and that's the best way to do it. Of course the great danger is that Conservative movement spends years in the wilderness following an Obama victory.
