The rinos come out of the woodwork any time someone suggests that. It is true, though. Remember a putz named Perot? He was winning the race when he dropped out. Never fooled me,but he tapped into a desire to be rid of the shackles of the two parties, especially when a rino Bush was in charge of one of the parties. Get enough money for backing and some familiar names to join up (Palin, Cruz, Rush) and it could happen pretty quick. You’d see a groundswell, in fact. It would start with a Presidential run that would align with tea party conservatives. The infrastructure of state and local organizations wouldn’t happen overnight, but over time as people switched.
True. But until recently there have also been two distinct opposing major parties on the ticket.
Will you still be poo-pooing third parties when your beloved Republican party formally endorses amnesty and a "new improved, conservative version of Obamacare"?
