I don’t know. Third party is an awfully tough and lonely road.

A third party is a long an lonely road. So, sometimes, is being a conservative in the Republican party. If the Republican party does disband, make no doubt about it, the communists, i.e., the Democrats will attempt to seize power. Not only would conservatives have to form a third party but, possibly, defend the Constitution with arms. Sure hope it does not come to that.

I agree, but if the GOP picks Romney and they give a lackluster campaign which reelects Obama, then the perception by many people will be that the GOP wants to lose. Especially given what they have done to Allen West. Why continue to support a party that seems to want to be in second place and support the policies of the first place party.

Allen West in 2016 could be a real viable candidate who could sweep the nation like Reagan. I have to wonder if this redistricting was done to get him out of the game. Like I said, if the GOP appears to want to lose, then IMHO I wonder if we really do have two separate parties. Or do we have an oligarchy with a majority party designed to drive the society into a totalitarian state, and a secondary party to act as a "relief valve" for those who won't go along.
