If they won't do it willingly, then you FORCE them to. You get the grassroots base of the party organised, and you remove their power structure right out from under them.
My take is , the GOP and RNC power structure is not about to give up their perks and power. They don't care that they have been repudiated nationwide and relegated to minority status in DC for a generation. There's too much pork in the trough to be had, still.
We need to enumerate the principles a new conservative party would fight for, for the country, like Newt's 1994 Contract for America. And then start a new party to get it enacted.
Thanks to George Bush's fiddling while Rome was burning, the GOP brand has been reduced to ashes in the mind of the public.
In the marketplace, when your brand has been destroyed, you start over with a new brand.
Here's the truth. We don't need the GOP--they need us.
We need to stop the abused wife behavior and get the divorce and build a new life.
