Let's face it... if not for the fact that our antidemocratic system gives the GOP undeserved power... the GOP might never have become so toxic if not insane as they are if they actually had to win majority support.

Under such circumstances of a party going from toxic to insane... one safety valve besides elections is for someone in Congress to leave their party.
