That is not to say that revolt should not occur at the primary level, or in the contest for speakership, or for Majority Leader of the Senate, or for inferior offices in both places, in fact, everywhere except in general elections.
Sarah Palin would serve conservatism far better to put her considerable talents behind the Article V movement or to run for Senate in Alaska at the primary level against Murkowski.
Ultimately, the only solution for conservatism which is doomed by a tsunami of illegal immigrants, a fifth column in our national media, a subversive educational establishment, and a Devil's deal with K St. and Wall Street, is to run around end, reform Washington not from inside where it is impossible but from outside in the state legislatures where there is at least some chance of overcoming these overwhelming forces. There is no hope of any third party movement at the general election level (except perhaps in isolated examples to oust the likes of Boehner or McConnell), it only weakens us.
Article V!
“...is to run around end, reform Washington not from inside where it is impossible but from outside in the state legislatures where there is at least some chance of overcoming these overwhelming forces.”
I agree that your analysis could work, but I don’t think it will work as the pols are entrenched and have a voting base to stay that way. Not to mention how they watch each others’ backs, vote “no,” vote “yes,” then cry, “See I tried to stop it.”
My opinion is the only way(s) to fix this is either a third party, or your basic out with the old and in with the new in D.C.
The next few years will be absolutely fascinating.
