Will not happen. The GOP has structured itself internally specifically to prevent this from happening. Which is why it has not happened already, despite a decade or more of "applying the whip" to the already-existing GOP.

"Structure" will not save them from the wrath of the people. The problem we have, is that the people aren't wrathful because they don't understand what's going on.

Again, some objective media sources with decent demographic penetration would solve this problem.

True - it won't save them from the wrath of the people - but it WILL allow them to prevent said wrath from being effectively expressed from within the Republican Party.

they know what's going on. They just don't know how to do anything about it. Because the system as it currently stands is rigged toward the status quo. When five hundred Tea Partiers can show up to a county GOP meeting and try to capture the local party apparatus by sheer numbers, only to be shut down by one GOP-E moderator wielding the "motion is out of order" card (even when it is IN order), people soon start to figure out that they're playing a rigged game.

Well son, you can wish in one hand and piss in the other, and see which one gets filled first. Or you can work hard and find a way to work around the system.
