Warning Shot

Olympia Snowe in today's New York Times:
There is no plausible scenario under which Republicans can grow into a majority while shrinking our ideological confines and continuing to retract into a regional party. Ideological purity is not the ticket back to the promised land of governing majorities — indeed, it was when we began to emphasize social issues to the detriment of some of our basic tenets as a party that we encountered an electoral backlash.
I see no sign that the party of Hoover is listening.

Anyone know any feelthy-rich conservatives who are willing to cough up the cash necessary to get a new party off the ground? (Save your pixels; the Libertarians are not it.)
