“The Republicans have let us down for a long, long time. Bush increased the size of the federal government more than LBJ. We need to break the grip of the two party system - it is destroying this country. Libertarian, Constituionalist, we need more political parties.”
That is a recipe for keeping DemonRATs in power forever.
The only reason that Clintoon was elected to begin with was due to splintered votes for a third candidate. Indirectly, Clinton was a lot like Obama, long on talk and short on good ideas. Gingrich took advantage of that situation and swept the house and senate two years later by selling a package to the American people. Unfortunately, many of the people swept into office became drunk with Washington power, and sold us down the drain. The GOP has to be the vehicle for “real change” in America. It needs to be given an enema, and forced to swallow some bitter medicine before it becomes healthy, but the patient will emerge stronger.

I just don’t believe in the GOP anymore. The two parties are almost the same. I have the feeling that no matter what we do, the coup has already happened. Seems to me that the trillion+ bailout was the end and it happened under a Republican president. We need some vitality brought to our election process and a whole new system, IMHO.
