Butt out of the fight, Rand.
The GOP has to be politically dumbest party in modern times. Their leading spokesmen regularly make clueless pronouncements, they have no long-term strategic plan, and I could not name the last time they passed one piece of legislation consistent with their party platform. Even when they control the WH and both Houses of Congress. They are positively pathetic. Say what you will about the Democrats, but they are constantly and fiercely working to advance their statist agenda. The GOP is run by a bunch of limp d**cks.
