The party don't mean shit, its the ideals it once stood for that are important. The corrupt swamp can keep that dusty old name. If Lincoln found reason to form his own party perhaps we too have come to such an impasse.
The Republicans arose after the Whig party ceased to exist. I'm not beholden to "Republican" as a brand name, but a 3rd party isn't viable. The only way is to either retake the republican party or replace them after they die, a Patriot party competing with Republicans and Democrats is a death sentence.
