I think a year, maybe a year and a half. A few more might wise up by October 2018. We Democrats aren't ever going to reach some of them.

When the elections come we'll have to settle for progressives, genuine moderates, and those remaining R's (however few of them remain) that put the interests of the country ahead of the interests of the Republican Party.
