Honestly--I never want the Republicans to figure out what is wrong with their party. [View all]

Ever---I don't want them to re-brand---I hope that Karl Rove fails in his obvious attempt to do so---I hope the Tea Party continues to revere douchebags like Ted Cruz.

Many predicted that the continued wing-nuttery of the Republican party would be the demise of the party.

It is now happening much to my delight. So I say to the Republican Party. Don't change a thing.
