Even if a third party could avoid simply splitting the right (as the Whigs once did), there's no reason to believe it would escape the fate of every "principled" movement that came before. Washington sucks almost everyone into the swamp. 

The problem has never been the party label. It's the system that makes them indistinguishable once they reach power. That machine has to be dismantled.

The most effective way to do that IMO is by going upstream and using the tool the Founders gave us for exactly this situation: Article V of the Constitution. 

Install reform-minded legislatures in just XX more states, and we can force a Convention of States. With that, we can impose term limits, strip D.C. of its ability to manufacture lifetime political careers, and finally break the cycle for good.

This is faster, cheaper, and far more likely to succeed than building a new party and hoping it doesn’t get eaten alive in the swamp.
