Agree that Mitch must go and it would send a strong message to the GOPe. However, I’m not confident that it would break the establishment’s stranglehold over the party.

There are deep seated and entrenched moneyed interests within the party that control it and dominate its “culture” of defeatism and its inclination to support more and bigger government. Attempting to eradicate that embedded culture is going to be a lot harder than most people think. Those interests will fight back with all they have. We’ve already seen that.

The GOP is not the answer IMHO. We need another party.

Agreed. Third Party required. The money and control of the GOP is way too entrenched. “Taking it over” just is not possible. We can keep nipping at it’s heals, and so we should, but that’s a loser in the end. It should be a step toward something greater.
