So it’s safe to conclude that the Republican Party will soon fall apart. What should conservatives do to adapt? Perhaps consider these options:

A.) Form a Third Party (But too costly, time-consuming and could take decades before and if we become a formidable political party)

B.) Join the Democrat Party and form the conservative wing. At least this would give Barry and Hildabeast a few headaches.

C.) Do a Karl Rove-in-reverse. Hire ourselves out as Democrat political operatives and sabotage all their schemes. If Karl Rove could single-handedly destroy the GOP, I’m sure there a few Freepers smart enough to do the same to the Democrat Party.

So what’s the best option?

My suggestions for the national GOP?

1. Don't let the crazies and sleazy become the face of the party.(Donald Trump, Todd Akin, Christine O'Donnell, et al.) Conversely, promote Rand Paul, Marco Rubio, and other intelligent, dynamic pols as the face of the party.

2. Focus on individual liberties and limiting government in citizens lives.

3. Leave the states to figure out how to govern themselves. Cut the Federal gov and return local control.

TexGrill, as long as there are places in the Republican Party where people get together and talk about "legitimate rape", the GOP will be seen as the intrusive and loony party. Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock found receptive audiences in some GOP circles for their ideas. Until the loons are told to hit the road, boils like those two and Trump will continue to pop up.
