If America is ever going to be fixed, the Republican Party must be marginalized and replaced by an actual conservative alternative.
I hear people saying the party can be “fixed”. The lesson of 2014 is that it can’t. There is too much money and too much cronyism in the Old Wing for it to be fixed.
The Tea Party can score individual successes like Dave Brat and others but to take a truly populist conservative message to the people, conservatives must be able to take independent action outside a party apparatus that despises them.
And like it or not, people like Levin and Rush need to take the lead. They have daily access to a new party base. Until one of them does so, all this talk about “leaving” is just that. Talk.
If I don’t GET the choice, I’ll write-in Ted Cruz in ‘16!
