Third parties don’t work, never have. Its the fastest way to elect Democrats.

3rd parties have not worked because they failed to produce a strong and viable enough candidate(s) not necessarily because of their policies, etc.

Have you considered the Republican Party circa 1860?

Unless you are Green/Nader who was accused (rightly or wrongly) of spoiling the chances of Gore and Kerry and giving the GOP the win.

Still, the environment is vastly different and the GOP has repeatedly proven itself impotent and ineffective. Do you need more evidence than Obama and a majority Dem congress?

I doubt a new party could do much worse and the time could not be riper. I say strike while the iron is red-hot!
