It was fairly obvious in the 2012 party conventions that the GOP was largely white and grey, in comparison to the Dems. I seem to recall there being some soul searching for a few hours afterwards, about how to expand the GOP tent.
Young voters. How do you feel about this shutdown and health care stand off? Just curious if Ted Cruz i& Co. are winning hearts and minds....
Republicans are doing everything in their power to alienate as many as they can. It has gotten to the point that only their brainwashed follows believe everything that comes out of their mouths.
Republicans have given themselves such a venomous reputation, that only out of touch middle aged and older people would ever consider voting for them.
Honestly, even the most delusional Republicans must feel a little queasy when they ponder the future of the party. Every demographic is voting for Democrats more and more. Apparently the 2012 election was in the bag for the Republicans (so they said) and look what happened. They didn't even come close.
Even Republicans come to know, at some point, that they are in danger.

Perhaps they should consider changing the symbolic GOP elephant to the dodo!

You need to be specific - the "Raving Teabagger who wants to burn down everything that resembles government" GOP, or the more traditional "Fellate everyone with a billion or more in the bank" GOP?

I think there are plenty of the second variety in the Democratic party as well, sadly....!
The GOP establishment decided after the 2012 election that they need to do a better job at outreaching. The GOP base decided that they needed to turn the crazy up to 11.
It's obvious who's winning the debate inside the GOP.
Ah, Ted Cruz! My favorite Hispanic-Canadian! I doubt Teddy is winning the hearts and minds of the young, but among the heartless and mindless, he's making great strides. I do believe he's got the Zombie vote locked up!
