It appears that the liberals stick together

I respectfully disagree. Nothing I've ever seen here (or on any other conservative forum) approaches the venom and all out hatred between Democrats and the super lefty Greens. The amount of vitriol and divisiveness between the two groups is quite shocking, given their common goals. But the Greens are intent on punishing the Democrats and they don't mind getting Republicans elected to do it. It is a sight to behold!

I occasionally lurk at DU when I don't get enough barf alerts to read here and I know exactly what you mean. Nader gets ripped there as often as Browne and Buchanan do here.

Many people are too quick to assume that third-party sentiment always hurts the GOP.

While the Left may make some use of the Greens and anarchical radical from time to time (G8 meetings and such), I believe Keunnelt-Leddihn in right in two respects:

The New Left (or recycled reds, the Greens) is a leftism to end all leftism. The left will never accept the New Left for it recognizes the anarchism of Bakhunin and others.
Even more interesting, at its base, the New Left shares exactly the same criticisms of the old Conservatives where the industrialization and mechanization of society were concerned. The old Conservatives (like the New Left) recognized the utterly inhumane aspects of such a world to come and foretold precisely the human agony and rank depersonalization that indeed has resulted.

It's a fascinating concept and goes a long way toward explaining why the Left would just as soon meld with a wholly compromised Right rather than confront the double-barreled menace that is the New Left's anarchism and essential truths (as recognized by the Old Conservatives prior to Pragmatism's dulling their senses).
