Well... Clearly the BEST interests of the GOP would be for them to win every election. Of course, no democrat wants that level of success for the GOP. That does not automatically equate to us wanting to see the GOP self destruct, for that would not be in our best interests. The adage about the "devil you know" is germane here. The GOP is a fractured conglomeration of southern white racists, midwestern pro-life bible thumpers, tea baggers, high rolling corporatists, gun lovers, and queer haters. That's fine with me. They can cobble together some regional victories, but their days of winning nationally with THAT coalition are past. I want that GOP to survive, because I can only imagine what sort of unholy alliance would rise up and pick up the conservative banner in America were the GOP to go the way of the Whigs. I like the GOP Just the way it is.... Regionally viable in a decreasing number of regions, and nationally impotent. I would always urge them to take steps to avoid self destruction, and I am confident, that given the make up of their current coalition, they are incapable of any sort of sea-change in philosophy that would create any real danger of their cutting into the democrat's current winning rainbow coalition. Demographics and time are on OUR side. Just don't go dyin' on us!
