Republican Scholar Has Drastic Solution To Fix The GOP

The cure may be worse than the disease but this Republican scholar is saying that Republican voters should vote against Republican-elite incumbents in the November general election, even if that means that Democrats will regain power in Congress.




(WND) The GOP has lost its way and conservatives should work to oust lousy incumbents in the Republican Party – even in the general election – says prominent Vanderbilt professor Carol M. Swain.

Swain, a lifelong Democrat who left the Democratic Party after becoming a Christian, is far from satisfied with the performance of the GOP. The author of “Be the People” sees Republicans too often holding a finger in the wind to determine how regain power.

"The Republican Party has lost its way," Swain said. "I think it has an identity problem. It doesn’t know what it wants to be. It believes it has to become the Democratic Party to stay in power. I believe that’s a serious mistake."

She added, "The Republican Party has not stood up for the Constitution in Washington, as far as I’m concerned. All this noise now about impeaching the president – they should have been screaming when the president first started abusing executive privilege. I think the Republicans have not stood up because they want to do it, too. When they’re in power, we’re not going to get that much change."
