I'm sure my writing this will make a few people mad. But asking tough questions usually does.https://medium.com/@jihoelzer/you-say-you-want-republicans-to-put-country-before-party-but-will-you-e18be174aa96#.3dwp5sgmx …
Any individuals you want to consider? Even at less noted level, those like Amash and Jones do well w/oppo in local elex.

And Amash is getting a lot of (more deserved than McCain) reasonably press for his oppo to Trump.
-
I agree. I think GOP who stand up to Trump will find it's a better, longterm strategy. "Good gov" more popular than partisanship
-
As Amash noted day after election, he got more votes in district than Trump. Those people should have more leeway.
-
They tend to get it. RW got me thinking about this yrs ago when he noted he was 1 of few who didn't need party to get reelected
-
Yup. I suspect more people are than they make out. But it certainly gives people courage.
-
I'd love to find a way to give more of them that courage. Elected officials are unfortunately really risk averse.

Campaign finance? Redistricting?

Redistricting would help. But, in my mind, this is the real problem: https://extranewsfeed.com/for-the-love-of-god-stop-trying-to-make-government-simple-7e56e0ea6ea3#.amu72992y …
