Leaders of the Republican establishment, alarmed by the emergence of far-right and often unpredictable Tea Party candidates, are pushing their party to rethink how it chooses nominees and advocating changes they say would result in the selection of less extreme contenders.


I understand Reagan saying you can’t go third party (also pushed by Levin and others) but how do you reconcile that with the actions being taken by the party? They’re not going to give up power and will *literally* lie, cheat and steal to keep it.

I’m no third party advocate - I just don’t see how to reconcile this.

We just keep doing what we’re doing. We almost won VA by ourselves with no GOPe. This means we’re TAKING OVER the party, and will continue to do so.

Over the next year, once the RINO purge is done, the GOP might very well be US.

By defunding and deriding them. Only donate directly to candidates you like.

The only way to reconcile this is with infantry regiments.
