The oligarchs, ideologues, grifters and con-men who control the Republican Party may provide the Republican Party’s leadership and funding, but it is the masses of reality-challenged rubes that vote for them that provide the voter muscle that allow them to win at election time.

If even half of Republican voters would sit down and coldly analyze what their interests were and what their party’s leadership has done for (or to them) the Republican Party would be a tiny minority vying with the Greens for political obscurity.
