Of course it is. The new party would be full of the same people. A new party doesn't give you a brand new set voters. You're stuck with the same voting public the two parties we have now pull from. Real change is going to have to come from a change of heart in the voting public. Nothing short of that is going to change anything.
What I think (hope!) you’re missing is that a great portion of the voting public feels that neither party represents their values and principles. If we could take the Republican Party and make it into a robust conservative voice, I think you’d see a response from the public that would surprise you. At least I hope we’re not past the point of no return.
I agree. Conservatives, I think, have their own caucus. If they do not, they should. But that caucus should only include conservative voting records. IOW, no matter how many times a moderate says they are conservative, moderates are not and never will be. Starting with the RNC and right on down the line, we need to support with $$’s ONLY conservatives. We also need a lot more candidates who are in it to serve, not to get re-elected, and who can get out there among the voters and give articulate, honest, positive messages and solutions.
