The TEA party has now realized the GOPe is its biggest threat, and will start actively campaigning against it. Which pretty much insures that 2014 will go to the Dems.
The GOP will fragment, and when that happens we will wake up with the Dems controlling all three branches of government.
Yes, this is true, the GOPe needs to be done away with.
I'm much more optimistic than you, caver. Tea Partiers are the base of the party. You want 2014 to go to the Dems? All GOPe needs to do is to keep disparaging Ted Cruz and like-minded legislators.
Romney lost because too many of the base stayed home.
Mid-term elections are entirely about the base of a given party. The next few months will be a disaster for the Dems, as Obamacare will drag down the numbers for Democrats.
