If the GOP nominates Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, or John McCain, it will no longer be the "Grand Old Party," and either they or the Democrats will be America's "third party" in very short order.
I don’t think the Republican party would instantly turn into a third party under those dire circumstances...we are bigger than that...and much, much grander. But that shouldn’t be our focus at this point...getting good conservative candidates out in the forefront should be at the top of our agenda...time to keep all eyes on the prize. We need to get active with emails and local support at the very least. And we need to be infectiously enthusiastic about the potential conservative candidates.
EV—I’m not warm to Romney or McCain, but they wouldn’t send me third party. Rudy would.
