The first party - and this goes for Canada too - that determines that fiscal conservatism and socially liberal policies are very popular, will turn into a dynasty. Nobody can seem to get out of their own way to make it happen. And when Johnson/Weld do it, the voters are too scared to go 3rd party. So the GOP will have to reform around those ideas.
