I do think "expressing outrage" will work if it was done. Sean Hannity, for example, refuse to seriously "express outrage" at the Republicans for their liberal moves and failing to have spine against the RATs. The damn callers to his show should make him stop his giggling act and lame "bash Democrats" act, and START reading the Republicans the riot act over borders and fiscal spending. If "outrage" was expressed to talk show hosts, in letters to the editors, to local Reps, etc. by enough conservatives, it will change. Our problem is that not enough Republicans do that but are strictly "PARTY CHEERLEADERS", no matter how liberal the party becomes.

These people do not fight for their nation, they fight for a party.

Certainly experssing outrage is a bare minimum. But I just don't see it working. The powers-that-be (including Hannity) will just say "where else are they going to go". That's a stupid stupid thing to say, but to a certain extent it's true. I, for one, won't quit working for repubs. In the long run. Short term, I have stopped giving money to the RNC and sent them back a letter (in response to a fund-raising), telling them "not one more dime till you get a spine".

In fact, I was using that as a tagline here for awhile, but dropped it recently in anticipation of Frisk actually doing something good in Senate. I'm waiting. With cautious optimism.
