So how does one start a third, truly conservative, Party?

For 2016 (if we survive).

By electing good republicans in seats they already hold and new party candidates in seats where you can get them elected. In effect don't try to take down the GOP but build a party outside it and pull good republicans in once the new party reaches a an effective size.

Personally I suggest studying the Freesoil party which was instrumental in creating the GOP.

In my opinion, what is happening to the GOP is that all the democrats are fleeing the marxist party and shoving conservatives out of the GOP. In effect we're going to end up with a marxist party and a democrat party with the GOP name. Personally I'd be happier if the fleeing democrats would retake their own party.
