I hope the party wises up, but I'm not very optimistic. Especially after watching this video:

"The party needs to change." No kidding? I'm glad we can agree on this point. The Republican strategist in the video continually mentions that the party needs to "change." Thanks for the observation, Barack. The only specifics--if I can even call them specific--he gives are listening to the younger generations and minority groups. What does this mean?

Buchanan continually pressures the Republican strategist to elucidate what he's saying by asking him questions and identifying the fact that his statements are cliches. The strategist fails to answer what the Party specifically needs to do to "change." He simply mentions that the Party has done a terrible job reaching minorities in the past. It's implied in his statements that the GOP should start pandering to these groups by offering more government assistance and special treatment like the Democrats.

Buchanan nails it with this question:

"So, the question is, do we give up our beliefs, the things we think are right or best for America, in order to try to get more votes? Or, do we try to sell what we believe in to these folks?"

Clearly the Republican strategist couldn't handle the heat. In the end, he fabricated a personal attack on himself by Buchanan. Something about moving to Canada. Buchanan at no point in the interview said anything about Canada.

I hope other strategists and other members of the GOP can handle the heat by answering the tough questions and formulating a strategy to get back on track.
