Get a grip. The Republican brand name was already worthless to begin with, else there'd be no reason for a Tea Party.
There is no 3rd party. The “tea party” worked within the Republican party to make it better to replace some RINOS with real conservatives. The tea party did the right thing.
See you and liberals agree and say the same thing that Republicans and the Republican party are the problem or responsible for most problems.
This is a 2 party system. By you constantly bashing Republicans and the Republican brand and the Republican party you help democrats/socialists and socialism.
The Republican party is improved now in the new session in 2011. Can it still be improved? Yes . But it is not the threat you make it out to be . The democrat party is the threat.
