Death of the Republican Party?

Throughout the history of our country, political parties have gone in and out of existence.  Starting from the beginning of the two party system with the Democratic-Republicans and the Federalists, a pattern has arisen that tends to herald the demise of one of the parties.  After reading this article, my theory is that there are [...]
