Actually, onyx, that is just what we have hoped for— to take over the Republican Party, restore it as LOYAL OPPOSITION and run the Establishment/neo-con/Lefties right OUT of the party.
It so suits me just fine if they evaporate. You know what I mean.

My thoughts exactly. The democrats will be so envious They would like to do same thing
Glad to see Cruz has finally come around on this issue. Your initial comment was a little misleading. It seemed to imply that those supporting Trump’s plan to build a wall were abandoning conservative principles by doing so.
Did you know that Cruz polls better against Clinton?
Answer? Like it isn't easy to manipulate votes today?' The only difference I can see is the votes MIGHT be influenced by the people who elected them and not by big money.
I would truly like to see elected officials have to go back to work after their time in office.
Bill Kristol and all his fellow conservative elites would have a hard time electing a dog catcher without our help...
After Trump’s President maybe we should create our own party... the Tea Party...
Good point. The GOPe and more timid conservatives always compare that situation to Perot in 1992 handing the election to Bill Clinton but Jeb doesn't remind me of Perot in 1992, he reminds of John Anderson in 1980. Anderson ran as a centrist alternative to "extreme" Reagan and the failed Carter administration. He got 7% of the popular vote and no electoral votes. Reagan got 51%, Carter 41% and just 49 electoral votes. Reagan got 489.
The moderate pulled votes from the liberal Carter not the conservative Reagan. That could happen in a Jeb-Clinton-Trump race.
Though Jeb is a lot less exciting than John Anderson.
Agree, but I take exception with your characterization of Kristol as a "conservative" of any kind. Other than the fact that he and his circle may want slightly lower corporate taxes than Hillary Clinton, there really isn't any difference between a Democrat and any one of Kristol's dream candidates (think Lindsey Graham).
