I am fairly certain that is the current political paradigm for either party.
Establishment Candidate vs Anti-Establishment Candidate
The percentage of disgruntled voters is significant so it actually provides a strong 'anti' response that could defeat the establishment candidate.
The establishment candidate is likely to take the nomination and then they reach into their bag of tricks as did Romney to find a running mate the emulates the anti-establishment will within the party. Romney did that with Ryan. Ryan of course accepted because he needed to save his Congressional seat, which could be done handily with larger shares of RNC funding as Veep.
How long will this go on?
I'll just say this, Governor Chris Christie has an interesting lock on politics and he is not a phoney.
