Not sinse the last major faction change ~ which was pretty much over by the 2004 election.

8 years later we've had no major movements, and running one of their own kind isn't going to attract further large groups of Democrats to the Republican brand. What it will do is alienate legitimate Republicans.

This is not rocket science ~ it's politics. You may be willing to give away our top slot to a leftwingtard again, but I"m not, and we don't have to anyway. You don't see the Democrats doing that!

[what's up]

Running a candidate who ran on a platform of lower taxes, reforming entitlesments, religious freedom, picked a far right man for VP, is a successful businessman, will not cut the military, and is against Obamacare is "their own kind"?

In your la-la world I'm not surprised you find that true.
