If this really happened I think it would be not only the deathknell of the GOP but would lead to the creation of more than two parties.

This election could very well be the end of the Conks or the Donks, depending on which way things go.
It should be interesting to watch unfold, unfortunately it might also mean the end of our country as we know it.

True. But we've never really behaved nicely in politics, except maybe for the brief period after WW2 when We Waz Kings. I mean Aaron Burr (Vice President) killed Alexander Hamilton (Founding lots of stuff) in a duel early on. Andrew Jackson's supporters trashed the White House when he was inaugurated. Etc.andy7171 wrote:I'd love to see that happen. But the way things work now, good luck organizing it without being labels racist/extremist/ ect.AshevilleApp wrote:
