I agree 100%. The GOP need to stop with the incumbent worship. The GOP is setup to squash dissent in the primaries and time after time we have candidates run uncontested in the primaries, only to wake up as we get to the generals ticked at the candidate and wish other options were avaiable.

Spot on. What a mess. Two thumpin's in a row for most people would be enough to realize the errors of their ways. Somehow, though, I'm not at all optimistic about the Republican Party's future because of their 40+ year history of happily being the minority party. It seems like being the minority party is the only thing "establishment country club" Republicans understand. We got one long row to hoe, that is for sure.....and not a whole lot of time to do it.....
