RIght and up until they are less Republican party and more the fascist party, please, become irrelevant and let someone like the Libertarians or the Green party to come in to take over. Would be nice to see a fresh face on the party block.
But you can never get rid of democrats, they've been around since there were political parties!
Though the tea party motivation has dropped and mostly dropped off, so we'll probably see Republicans move towards the center.
