You got it granny.

It amazes me how many people bray about third parties. You can look at 1912 (or Canada from 1993-2004) to see what that would mean. If conservatives can’t take over the GOP then we sure as hell can’t start a third party and drive it out of business either.

No kidding, I love it when someone on FR makes sense. I don't know where these "third partiers" think they can possibly find enough voters to win an election after they're done fracturing the Republican party in two.

That's just part of their faulty judgement. The other is that these so-called leaders of these pure parties are also human like everyone else and it wouldn't be long until those involved with these pure people would become disenchanted with them, too. It's human nature. We had better figure it out that we only have one viable way to deal with this: First, vote for the most conservative, that can win, in the primary and after that, vote straight Republican. There is no other sane method.
