I recall hearing much the same thing.
All the more reason why there should be a third party,
and leave the old Rebulican GOPe saddled with the old 1882 court decision.
Right now , the best change is to have the Repubbies fade away by court order,
since they can't persue either the truth, or justice in elections . !
The Republican Party has been castrated, and found to be spineless recently, and unlikely to change by legal intimidation.
Jebbie Bush/ John Boehner, Rinse&Repeat, J. McCain = Poster Boys of The Party W/O a Ball.
Cruz/ Walker/Paul/Greg-Abbot = Poster Boyz for The Courage & Freedom Party.
