“I am becoming more and more confident that now IS the time to start forming a new party of Reagan.”
Conservatives have needed a political party they could call their own for about the last 20 years. Depending on how things salt out on Tuesday night, we might see that happening very soon. I just hope that such a political party would reject the use of primaries for selecting their Presidential candidates.
If conservatives aren’t even a majority in the Republican Party, how do you expect them to get anywhere with a third party.
A third party has zero chance at success. All it will do is throw the election to Hillary.
Committed conservatives even in combination with the committed religious right make up maybe 40%, 45% of the party. It’s a plurality that if “it” were smart could take most primary contests. But outside the party it’s what, maybe 20 - 25% of the country? The breakaway party just fizzles and doesn’t win.
