Excellent Rant!
Like the argument I've made to those 3rd party voters I encounter, the answer is not to jump ship, but to tidy up the ship you are on. RINOs can be taken out in primaries, and pay attention to the politics of you local area. That's where it all starts. Strive to get good conservative minded people in your city council, state senate/house, ect. Run yourself if you want. But be active in spreading conservative values.
Go Coug! Can I be your spokesman?
