Well not so fast there Jim. You are painting with a wide brush, besides the alternatives are even worse.
Yes they are.
I have come to believe that the GOP will never mount a comprehensive attack using all the resources at their disposal to destroy the Democrats - because they agree with the Democrats about the fundamental issues.
Therefore - the only force that can destroy the Democrats is the voters, and they will not do that without pain - a lot more pain.
Until the GOP is destroyed and rooted out of government completely, replacing it with the party we need will not be possible.
