I agree. Too many republicans and barely any notable conservatives have any balls.
edit:
I have to add... Too many of them are becoming reactionary and far too passive while not taking the lead on developing any confidence, strength or platform of their own identity.

I used to vote Republican. I won't anymore. I didn't leave the GOP; they left me. But the Dems aren't much better. A viable Independent Party might be the answer, but the pols on both sides of the aisle will do their level best to stop that from happening, because it threatens their grip on power.
Yeah, I'd call that a crisis.
The people at the controls right now are ideologues, and if they have their way we will end up with some kind of unholy alliance of big business and Christian conservatism. Military-industrial theocracy isn't something I would like to live under.

In some ways, Yes, they need to reach out more, instead of holding back ... we need to run anti-Democrat and have a plan to go with it!!!
