You're going to dilute only one party - the GOP. Don't kid yourself.
If you want to create a regional party in the Bible Belt that has no ability to ever win the Presidency, and ends the GOP chances of doing so till the end of time, that's fine, but be sure you are clear on the actual implications.
You are something of a leader of the anti-Christian, anti-social conservative, pro-liberal group here.
Now you plead for us to stay in this new anti-Christian GOP that you are striving for.
Christians will not support your agenda.
That's called "the catbird seat" and is a good place to be.
At least, it was good enough for John McCain and the RiNO's when they put together the "Gang of 14" -- remember that? -- in the Senate.
Sauce for the RiNO is sauce for the Tea Party. We can broker stuff, too.
Quit warning us off the prize.

“If you want to create a regional party in the Bible Belt that has no ability to ever win the Presidency, and ends the GOP chances of doing so till the end of time, that’s fine, but be sure you are clear on the actual implications.”
The Pubbies seem to be doing a fine job in “regionalizing” themselves, without any help from heavy9 at all.
Want to see them REALLY self-destruct? Then abandon the Christians while trying to coax non-Christians into the party.
The results will be:
- Very few non-Christians will join up, but...
- Millions of Christians will leave in disgust.
There, that fixed it!
That’s what I call strategery!
