We have history with third parties. It's not good.
Quite frankly we have two choices. Start a third party as you advocate or stand up and fight back against those who would take over our party. Neither one is easy. I'm past shilling for a party that pisses me off just as much as anyone else here.
If we want to save the system term limits would be a great start. My biggest fear is starting a third party and ten years from now being in the same place we are now which is very conceivable.
If we are willing to fight to save the GOP it can be done. won't be easy but probably more prudent than starting a third party which gives no guarantee that we won't be right where we are now in ten years.
I'm not. That would be Bray.
But I do understand.
What we've GOT to do, is in the NEXT primary season, make sure there is a TEA party/Conservative candidate running against whatever RINO voted "aye" for this bill--in every district--and vigorously support him/her. And select one and only one. Expose the fakers and libertarians financed by the GOPe/democrats. We should make a Free Republic campaign fund starting NOW.
I'm quite serious. I'm tired of listening to naysayers who only TALK. It's past time to piss and moan about the GOPe, we need action! Money talks.
I'll be going to JimRob to get permission to start campaigning now.
We "need" another party, but a substitution of a third party for the Republicans would require a transition period with dominance of the Democrats. We all can see how much damage Ovbama did in just his first two years with carte blanche to do whatever he wanted. I don't think the Republic could survive. The only option is to wrest control from the eGOP.
Starting a third party (or really a fifth party, since Libertarian and Greens are third and fourth) would help cement the Dems as the PARTY and we would go down the Socialist path...to Marxism.
“We have history with third parties. It’s not good.”
We also have a history with RINOs - the past few elections have proved that getting SMALL G’ment types elected in the RINO party is an exception - Mr. Cruz, Mr. Lee, Mr. Sessions.
