Will the GOP's rising stars save the party?
First, the Republican Party is in no danger of going away anytime soon
Secondly, the party is way bigger than its leadership.
How many people voted for MItt, again? Something like 49,000,000 or so wasn't it?
The GOP isn't going anywhere.
The GOP, will continue to follow their plan to make America fail economically. The plan now seems to have been: help America enter another Great Depression, then trot out rich candidates, candidates that built it themselves and stashed their profit overseas. Americans would then realize how easy it is to become rich, and bingo, in their greed, would vote Republican.
Instead Americans bought some lottery tickets and voted Democratic.
Meantime Republicans are still following their plan to make America fail, but the part to show America rich poster-candidates might be out.
So can the GOP come up with a better plan to make America fail or was that it? We'll see.
After loss to Bush in 2004, Democrat soul searching sounds eerily familiar
'In November 2004, the New York Times published a story about baffled, bewildered, and anxious, Democrats who were stunned that they failed to oust an unpopular incumbent.'

What did the Democrats do about it?
They restructured their message, put in new campaign leadership, focused on key issues
It paid dividends in 2006 and 2008
What will Republicans do?
We shall see
Doubled down, then?
Every moderate in power was expelled.
There's nothing seriously wrong with "the party" that a few adjustments won't correct. The candidate was the problem and those at the top who push RINOs on the voters.
What would you say to people like Jindal and Martinez? And do you think they've hurt their futures within the party now?

Unless the republican party finds a way to out promise the democrats, they are done for all time. They should have promised amnesty to the hispanics, more free stuff and fewer criminal penalties to the blacks, and increased welfare for all. Free college tuition to everyone. Children have the right to support from their parents up to age 55. The right to a comfortable living whether a person works or not.
Unless republicans are prepared to up the ante, they won't win anymore elections.

First Bobby Jindal, and now Susana Martinez:
Martinez criticizes Romney comments, points way forward for GOP - James Hohmann - POLITICO.com
From the piece: She’s been publicly critical of Romney before. In a May interview, she criticized his embrace of “self-deportation.” In September, she criticized the failed GOP nominee’s caught-on-camera assertion that 47 percent of voters are dependent on government, and returned to the topic here — but using harsher terms.
“It’s a ridiculous statement to make,” she said. “You want to earn the vote of every single person you can … It doesn’t matter whether individuals are in need of assistance of the government or individuals who are in college, it doesn’t matter. Why would you ever write off 47 percent?”
Hopefully the GOP's introspection will continue and it will save itself from further decay by listening to new leaders like these. America needs two strong, credible parties, and the GOP needs strong leaders who aren't willing to give in to the absolutist crazies any more.

As I predicted, the rush to the exits from the Romney tent begins.
The only thing that can save the GOP is to stop being hypocrites, stop making up lies and conspiracy theories, stop the quest for birth certificates, stop bashing gays and blacks and Hispanics, stop the attacks, and start propounding the superior ideas and principles that were the hallmark of conservatives in days gone by.

Yes. In just one election cycle the trend fell apart - during the years of "Hopey Changey". As I recall a couple of months ago there were a lot of predictions like this about the most current election.

Yep. And what did they do? Did they decide to cozy up to the left extreme, getting further and further from the center? Nope. Just the opposite. In fact, they took quite a few issues directly from the right (Obamacare is a prime example, I'm shocked the republicans didn't sue him for copyright infringement), made it their own and went to the center. Oh, and they ran a guy with more personality than a broom. That's always a good move.

Nonsense. No one wants America to fail economically. At least not either of the main parties. This is no different than saying anything Obama does is wrong just because he did it.
It is refreshing to see Republican leadership stand up to the lunatic fringe.
Not since John McCain slapped around the Obama is Arab lady have top republicans stood up and said....stop saying stupid shit!
Get as far away from the birthers as you can
Tell the abortion/rape crowd to keep it to themselves
Avoid appearances with Rush Limbaugh
Stop attacking hispanics and the working poor
If the new Republicans can hold their ground, there may be hope in 2016
LOL A market running between 17,000 and 18,000, unemployment about 5%, and the GOP running the most ridiculous candidate ever to run at the head of a major party. Looks like the Republicans have done it to themselves again.
Travelling at the speed of light, it might only take them 10 years to get there.The haters are being forced out.
The Republicans are returning to reality.

Look who's talking your candidate is under investigation by an army of FBI agents
