The rate at which people are ditching the modern republican party is rather amazing. The only note they have left to play is to pander to the most dedicated insane part of their party, and well, that just pushes even more people out bit by bit.
That's "good" in the sense that the modern republican party is a national shame. However, leaving JUST the democrats as the last "super party" isn't the best idea either. While I agree with them a lot more these days, let's face facts, they're basically cowardly when it comes to actually implementing what they want to do. Too much pandering to people who will hate them no matter what doesn't get much done.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
