I do not trust the GOP. They’ve cheated on us so often they’d make Henry VIII blush.
If you have ever watched Raiders of the Lost Ark, you'll notice a great life lesson. Indiana Jones almost never never wins a fight. The only fight I can remember him winning is the one where he shoots the swordsman, but even that was in the context of Mariane getting kidnapped, and he lost that. He goes through the whole movie losing, getting beaden down, but how does he win in the end? He gets up one more time than the others knock him down. By the end of the movie, he is the only one left standing.
Hillary and the baby boomers moved into the Democratic party in the 1960s, but were not in charge when they were young. They didn't like the old guard Democrats, and fought with them exactly like the tea party is fighting the GOPE. (people forget that part of history) But eventually the old faded away, and the boomers inherited the party.
Can the GOPe bring in the young? Of course not. But the Tea Party can. They are idealistic and vote on principles, and the young respond to that. They are the only group working to fix the burden of government that the young will have to live with for the rest of their lives. If the tea party can bring in the young, the Tea party will inherit the GOP, no matter what temporary victories the GOPe will have along the way.
