maybe...but i think there are a lot of gop who are tired of the gop. further, dems do the same thing. so why is it a surprise that the gop would do the same thing?
this the truth don - there is a large, growing, class of people fed up with both parties. for over a decade they have been referred to as "independents". the fear is so great that a viable third party might arise, that the two party head system incumbents fear to call them anything else.
the problem of course is, the so-called independent party does not have a solid platform at this point. the people are mostly made of voters who are what you call middle of the road. for example - i'm conservative militarily, monetarily etc.....but mostly liberal when it comes to social policies, such as gay marriage, help for the poor, health care etc....
i don't have a party. so i usually end up voting who is the lesser of two weevils.
Hack-backfire.
