Let Obama drive out the Blue Dogs.
Then let the republicans tell the religious right to go along or get lost.
Suddenly you are left with a pretty good sized centrist movement.
I think Lieberman shows exactly what can happen if the dems go that route.
A few dark red states would probably stay with the religious conservatives.
Then a few purple states could elect some centrists.
We'd have three real parties, with the centrists quite likely holding the balance of power.
That would be the best case of all.
+1...Nothing would make me happier(with the exception of secession). With a 3rd of the electorate claiming that they are "independent" voters. The right candidate could make a mess of things. Of course...the system is so stacked by the 2 existing gangs that it is almost impossible for a new gang take turf. I have need for any of these gangs...I would like to see the system be thrown into total chaos though. A real good shake up would do the country good.
