Silly Hillary! Just get the GOPe to shove another DemLite candidate down our throats in 2016 like they did last time! That’ll guaran-damn-tee a third party candidate!
Your 2nd sentence will come true, but I doubt the 3rd will. If it does, Hillary will love it.
The flaw in your thinking is that many million registered Republicans voted for Mitt because they seriously thought he was the best candidate.
It really wasn't secret mind control rays from Karl Rove's attic.
The conservative base isn't only not a majority in the country, it is arguably not a majority of the GOP electorate.
We need to make the base bigger.
