In the long run .... maybe, in the same way it worked for the Tea Party, i.e., blowing up the Party.

But probably not because the D Party is simply going to move frther right to fill the void (centrist right) created by the GOPs demise. It's what two party systems do ... move to wherever the most votes are -- because the goal is to win (and hang onto power) as opposed to effect principles.
