One of the only mistakes from the start of this rebellion is believing that the GOP-e would willingly sign onto the TEA Party philosophy. There is no mistake now that the RINO establishment must be wholly replaced, no matter how long, difficult, and impossible this task turns out to be. We no longer have an official Republican Party, it has been eaten hollow by maggots.
I do not consider it a mistake to hope we could fix the problem from within. This was a necessary step. In my opinion, those that want to return the party to its principles are those that realize that the next step is to allow the party to fail under the weight of its rot by no longer propping it up as a somewhat conservative less progressive alternative to progressives like we did with McCain.
It is time to call a spade a spade, a progressive a progressive, a commie a commie, a RINO a RINO.
Let them fail for supporting failure. Let them fail like they should fail by no longer allowing them to succeed. Only then can the party be restored.
