The term "uniparty" is beginning to enter into common usage.

It’s time for the American People to not rely on “honest” politicians but to make it clear by word and deed that we will not put up with big spending and big taxing and WE WILL THROW THE BUMS OUT. That is the only language and action politicians understand. I think the Tea Party and Sarah Palin-types get that. Everybody needs to get it.

I think a viable strategy is refusing to allow the powers that be to dominate our (conservative) discussion and the culture. For conservatives we sure do seem to hang on every word and edict that the kakistocracy utters.

Angelo Codevilla is a fine writer and deep thinker. His term, “uniparty” is perfect.

I disagree with his solution. Mere voting every other year has not, and will not change the course of our nation.

Two popularly derived houses of congress are the source of our woes. Return the states to the senate as per our framers design. Mark Levin's amendments, which I support, would re-federalize the government far more than the framers design such that the states could override federal statutes and scotus decisions.

“...Breaking up the Uniparty, means breaking the Democrats’ hold on non- Democrat congressmen and senators. The only way to do that is to break the Republican leadership’s hold on other Republicans and on the Republican label. That in turn requires using the primaries to screen out UniParty people.

Doing this is more possible than ever, providing conservatives learn to hang together before they are hanged separately....”
******************************************************************

Amen to our need to hang together on this. No conservative circular firing squads. AND NO DEFEATISM. Our mission needs to be to proceed with moving forward to FIRMLY take the reins of the Republican Party and remake it into THE true American conservative party. We’ve been making impressive gains and need to continue with further substantial gains—we’re getting close.

We now have three parties
Democrat
Republican
Alpissedoff
My guess is if the third group would get organized the America people would follow it

Our mission needs to be to proceed with moving forward to FIRMLY take the reins of the Republican Party and remake it into THE true American conservative party.

It might be better to leave the label "Republican" than to rebuild it — consider the sheer amount of betrayal and deceit the "party of all-talk and no-action" has engendered, consider the amount of "roll-over and do nothing" they've done in the past 5 years (Fast and Furious, Benghazi, eligibility issues, ObamaCare legitimacy, and so on).

Do you really think that it is even possible to remake that into something that people can trust?

So how much less money under taxes and fees is the government going to spend this time, and how much money is going to be saved for the tax payers? ...LoL.
