Speaking as a liberal, I wholeheartedly endorse this as a Republican strategy.

If you wanna have a place in American politics you need money, and only corporations and lobbies are wealthy enough to fund a politician's campaign. I am sorry, but to think about a third party supported by the people and not the business establishment is pure delusion.

Speaking as a Conservative I am saddened by and deplore the takeover of the democrat party by left-wing socialist, communist radicals that espouse their America last philosophy.

And speaking as a strong progressive, I am saddened by the takeover of the Democratic party by moderate to right wing corporate butt kissing fascists...

Take a look at the so called HC reform bill, it's nothing but a giveaway to the health insurance industry and big pharma.

It's become harder and harder to tell the two parties apart.

They also believed government should stay out of the economy. Bush 43 turned all of this on it's head. his quote on the Wall Street bailout ''I ended capitalism to save it''. What total junk! Plus the man doubled our national debt and invaded a country that never attacked us. I'm a social conservative but I think the GOP focuses too much on it. Let the states decide these issues. The Democrats are just plain wrong on economic and social issues. Thay want Washington to run everything.
As a LIBERAL I agree. We need a LIBERAL party with people like Howard Dean, Ralph Nader and Michael Moore. People that care more about the country than the Democrats do.

I really cannot tell them apart anymore. That is why I don't understand why the so called conservatives are soooooo upset at Obama. He is pretty much doing the same things Bush was doing. Escalating 2 wars, getting ready for a 3rd and 4th war with Yemen and Iran, running up huge deficits, bailouts for the rich and telling the working people that we will be forced to buy overpriced insurance and medicines from big insurance and big pharma. The cons should love this guy and I think if he was white, they would not be so peed off at him.

As I recall Obama raised about a half billion from small contributions on the internet while Hillary and McClown were raking it in from big business. We don't need the business establishment. Not at all. They are enemies to the working people.

We have enough trouble in this country with a two party system, of getting them to work together and get things done in Washington. A third party will do nothing but make things even more complicated. Image electing a president that only 38% of the voters supporting him/her. What we really need are people who can put their party hats aside, once elected, and do the people's work the way they used to do back in the days when Gerald Ford was the house minority leader.
