Why would anyone back a party based on what it once was? You in your sadly misguided loyalty, and all of the rest of us have 18 months to wake up and get on the bandwagon to change the GOP back into something meaningful, something that somewhat resembles a conservative Party again and not just Democrat Lite. It's because of people like you who mindlessly vote for anything with an "R" after it that has put us in this mess.
Without such blind support there would not be a Kennedy wing of the Republican Party in the Senate.
If there is no longer a meaningful difference between the parties then much more than a single election will be lost. America will be finished when there are only two Democrat parties to choose from.
I will not participate in supporting the perversion of the Grand Old Party by a small minority and neither will most good Republicans. We will rebuild the party from ashes first. We have all just had a sample of what to expect from a corrupted GOP.
There is still an enormous difference between the Republicans and the Rats. And even if it were only a small difference, that could be decisive.
We don’t need people who think like you. Get lost, and good riddance, chump.
