I despise these vermin. If the Conservatie base can’t take over the party as we did under Reagan, it’s time to DESTROY it and form a third party, banning all these establishment hacks from participation.

You may be right but a new party would throw away all the gains made at the state level.

While we are all frustrated and it sounds so noble to form a 3rd party, it’s not the answer. It takes many, many years to get a 3rd party viable, and we don’t have that kind of time. Most of us loathe the majority of the weenies who lied to us just to get elected. The House will come up for re-election in 2016 - unfortunately, we are stuck with the traitors in the Senate for 4 more years - at least those who got elected in 2014, and that includes the nasty McConnell. I don’t know what the answer is, but, I know a 3rd party will ensure Democrats once again having control of all 3 branches of government. I guess the way things are going - they already do????

I don’t think you really have to at this point. I think a 3rd silent party has already formed and the Tea Party is largely responsible for it; a party that doesn’t pay attention to partisanship and votes for the right man for the job regardless of the letter that follows his name. We need to focus on changing term limits and weeding out corruption which is so common in government and politics its considered the norm now.. No more lifetime appointments. Two consecutive terms only; maybe 4 max. They can be allowed to be re-elected after a at least 1 term off and the only reason for this is there are some good Senators and Representatives who do a good job but they are few and far between. I’m not crazy about the use of PACs either because they can be abused (badly). There is much more to do in the integrity of the electoral process as well.
