How can Republicans, in general, really be prevented from ever morphing into leftists again, and what do conservatives do next if Republicans, in general, do become leftists, yet again?

The answer is: us. Next election cycle will be Presidential and we need to keep the pressure up in primaries against RINO’s regardless. Cycle after that will likely be a Republican president and hopefully a Republican Congress and Senate. We need to keep the pressure up against RINO’s in primaries regardless. The conservative base gets stirred up and active and then . . . when victory is within its grasp . . . the conservative base relaxes and lets the political “professionals” take control again. See, the professionals get a paycheck from it so they never give up and work every day.
Hijack the party positions and put conservatives in them : )
Your answer doesn’t also take into account other political races, in ‘12 and beyond, where the Democrats are the incumbents, and some of their GOP opponents are RINOS, with the remainder being truly conservative Republicans. Also, there are many “pro-leftist areas” of the U.S. where the only GOP officeholders/candidates running are RINOS, if there are, even, any GOP officeholders/candidates running at all in such areas of the U.S. Should conservatives just always avoid all areas of the U.S. where they can’t win? What if all of these “pro-leftist areas” of the U.S. never change over, ever? Most U.S. cities are “pro-leftist areas”, so how does conservatism, actually, win over such areas, long-term?
