I tend to agree with you.
The Republican party is DOA in the Northeast, the West coast and much of the industrial Midwest. I think I'd prefer to see an "Independent" party formed in those areas to run fiscally conservative candidates who have a prayer at winning.
Full fledged conservatives can run everywhere else and we can purge the party of RINOs.
I agree. It's going to take much more than the democrats sucking to get the votes needed to win elections. What's needed is true limited government conservative/libertarian IDEAS to contrast with the dems. If someone is found that can articulate the message, and talk through the MSM smokescreen, the dems will get destroyed at the ballot box, with the demographic concerns taking care of themselves.
Right now I don't see the republican party even trying to do this. I pay close attention to politics, and I couldn't really tell you what the Republican plan is to answer and counter the runaway socialism we are facing. It's going to take a lot more than a strategy of "we aren't them"...
“Time for a new party anyway.”
Amen! If we must have a two-party system, then it’s time to dump this one. The Republicans sure don’t look like they want my vote, nor that of many other conservatives. It would be a great relief if they would just cease to exist.
Hooray, Zogby!
