Absolutely wrong. A third party will not get off the ground unless an incumbent (and popular) President switches to that third party and takes the voters with him. Barring that amazing occurrence, a third party will do nothing but give the left permanent power. No ifs ands or buts. A third party is only relevant (and important) to politically junkies. Common citizens barely have the time to check their kids’ homework, let alone have to spend weeks and weeks learning about a third party.
You have to change our party from within. It’s not difficult IF we find a young and energetic leader who is not in it for elective position, but is instead in it to build the party. Once a conservative is in leadership of the party and the grassroots is clearly controlled by that leader, it’s simply a matter of telling congressman and senators that if they do not actively seek out our platform of ideals and legislation, they will not receive funding and will not be allowed to run as a GOP candidate.
We need to look at this as a 12 year project or longer - just as ACORN and SOROS have viewed their project to destroy capitalist America and recreate it in the image of everyone sharing the misery equally with Soros flying around petting the poor on their heads as if he’s the great giver and grandfather of the people.
No third parties. Third party talk will only make those frustrated with the GOP NOT VOTE. This is what gave us Obama, gave us Clinton, and will give us the next liberal leader - if the country makes it through this episode.
Stress is building on traditional Democrats right now. They support liberalism only as far as it can go before it actually impacts their lives. We’re at that point now - or very close. When non-liberal Democrats are pushed to the brink, they want the country governed as they live their lives - which is center-right to right.
Chyrsler case in point.
The bright side to a truly viable always conservative 3rd party it keeps politicians operating in a more honest fashion and closes the door on under the table behind closed doors cross the aisle deals that screw the US citizen. Shamnesty comes to mind for one big issue, not to mention spending, tax increases, energy policy and foreign policy.
I respect your opinion, but look at the recent amount of party switching at the national level. RINO's dominate the GOP now.
