Excellent, Laura. I agree with you 100%. Republicans have allowed themselves to become victims, when we should all be saying, "I am not a victim. I will assert my principles, and stand firm for them, no matter how strong the headwinds." New party? No. New leadership. Yes. We have to stop bringing knives to gun fights. We need to become activists like the other party. We can learn from them. We should be duplicating their tactics. Republicans, when they get to D. C. want to be liked and invited to cocktail parties. We have to stop sending Republicans to Washington who care about what the other side thinks of them. We need to send principled conservatives who know our history and stand firm on our Constitution. The other party is treating our Constitution as though it doesn't exist. I can go on, but thank you for this piece. I hope Republicans who want to resist will coalesce and bring change.

We must send warriors. Nothing else will do.
Bravo! I knew you would address this issue soon, and here it is! You are soooo right.
