What percentage of votes have third party efforts EVER received? 5%? Maybe 10% when Perot tried it? That is not the smart move, Infiltrate the GOP. replace the rino's. The percentages favor a renewed Tea Party effort to change the complexion of the existing structure.

Any third party attempts must me limited to select house races, state legislative races, school boards, treasurers etc.

Any attempt to challenge the GOP on a grand scale will be crushed. Better to snatch the occasional house race and caucus with the GOP conservatives while building our brand.

There is no political solution to this crises, both Parties are in on it.

It is a little dance they do for their respective voters, but in the end, they just are quibbling about marginal issues.
