To an extent I agree. But when you strip off parts of the GOP machine to use, you bring the cancer into the new host.
The machine, from aides to secretaries is GOP. Thus every bit the problem. All the staffers are mercenary. They work for GOP this cycle, Dem the next.
All these unemployed people out there and we cannot find new blood?
The big problem has been consultants ~ mercinaries ~ don't hire them.
Alas, Mitt Romney wasn't hiring Virgians, nor Asian Americans, nor was he interested in campaigning. Besides, he let his crowd cheat us out of a meaningful primary.
So much for that. They were not interested in Romney though.
