Kicking them out is not going to happen. The party’s controlling apparatus is too tied to special interests and the GOP culture and mindset are too deeply entrenched. I just don’t believe that the party can be changed in any meaningful way. The apparatchiks will destroy anyone who challenges them. Just look at how the Tea Party is treated and marginalized.

The base is suffering from a severe case of battered wife syndrome. Year after year the GOP turns on its voters and yet they come back for more of the same.

The GOP is simply not what it claims to be. Talk is cheap. Their actions do not match their rhetoric. It is a party without a soul and devoid of any convictions.

Which, in many ways, makes them far worse than the D's. At least with the D's, we know what we're up against. With the R's, it's lies lies lies, get elected, screw the voters. I'm done with them. I would live to vote for Cruz, but I won't do it so long as there is an R next to his name. The Republican party is out to destroy the Conservatives/Tea Party in America. It's time to wake up and smell the coffee.
