I really hate to say it, but a lot of people aren't living in the same world we are here... For instance- my father and grandfather (and many friends of theirs) are party line GOP voters. They get told by the party "This is our candidate" and they say "Well, he's a republican, so he gets my vote." Believe me, I've tried to change my father's mind before (grandfather, at 87, he's too stubborn and doesn't pay attention to the workings of folks like Cruz, Lee, and Paul). There are pretty big numbers within the GOP that won't take a stand and say "No! We're voting for the good candidates that stand for conservative ideals, not Democrat Lite." It's kind of scary how so many "conservatives" do not like the tea party folks.
