I guess it depends on what the meaning of the words “Republican Party” are . . .
If the Republican Party is, the party of the Republic, created to secure the blessings of Liberty and our G-d given natural rights, the party of limited government and fiscal conservatism, the party of Peace through Quiet Strength and an invested and involved citizenry, then yes, to our tragic loss, that blessed creation has passed on.
If you mean the Republican Party of Boehner-Ryan-Romney-McCain-Graham-Rubio AND OBAMA et al, then Yaaaaa Hoooo! that Grizzled painted bitch is alive and working that stankin’ bloody gash all over this fruited plain.
Is the Party the Voters or them’s-that-count-dem-votes?
That existential decision is what we face today.
Curious what your tag line says, I forgot all my high school Spanish and the invasion didn’t reach the east coast until the Bush years,
