Look at who is now the de facto Republican/conservative leadership:

Newt, Rush, Cheney, and perhaps a couple others.

Not a single sitting Senator or Congressman is even notable.

That’s absolutely pathetic.

I really am totally disgusted with the GOP.

I’m right there next to ya man, the last election was terrible, more than anything we need unity and leadership.

I won’t say that. Mike Pence, Jim Demint, Jeff Sessions, Richard Shelby, etc. I can name a lot of individuals in the party who are conservative leaders. They aren’t national leaders though. They really aren’t galvanizing individuals so it leaves the job to Newt, Rush, Cheney, governors like Palin, Sandford, and Perry to name a few. I’m disgusted with those like Romney who want to reinvent the party and move beyond Reagan and that quaint thing we call the constitution.

There are a few, here and there, in Congress. They just don't get any face time. But they are there. If things get much worse, it wouldn't surprise me to see some blue dogs jumping the rat ship.

The last Republican Senator elected President was Harding. He was also the first one, IMHO.
