I look at it this way..........If a third party were to be developed and developed correctly with the right people, either the Democrats or the Republicans would become the third party and meaningless. This would make it remain a two party system. A third party, developed after the election and utilized for 2012 would have time gain steam and give the people what they really want.....representation. It would take tons of work, but it could be done.
Aye, now there's the rub, isn't it?.
The "right people" for you may not be the same "right people" for me.
"A third party, developed after the election.."
There already are several third parties, and with what fire do you propose to generate the "steam" of which you speak?
"It would take tons of work.."
As much work as say; trying to convince a handful of folks on Free Republic to see things your own particular way?
Good luck with that.
