What bothers me about “taking over the repubican party” as opposed to a third party is

1) The rinos KNOW a third party won’t be started. They use the “perot” argument.

and

2) When has the majority of the republican party EVER been conservative? Even the two years the senate was controlled by the GOP when Reagan was president the party was still controlled by rinos.

So, I don’t believe a MAJORITY GOP can ever be taken over by conservatives. It hasn’t happened in my lifetime.

“When has the majority of the republican party EVER been conservative? “

Not to nitpick but the Republicans are the “conservative Party.” What you and I want is for them to be the “Conservative Party.”

As for the majority of Republicans being Conservatives, it matters not. What matters is that the reins of power within the party and in the seats of government are held by Big C Republicans........All of this is why the TEA Party movement within the Republican Party is so important......Third party the answer?.....NO. Palace revolt? Yep! Long live the Prince!
