Free beer would be nice too, but I don't see the Republicans making that happen either.

Well, now I've got ask you a question or two. Assuming you don't like Bush, what alternative do we have? Do you have another candidate in mind who can put up a viable primary challenge? Or, if you are saying you can put up a winning third party candidate, how are you planning on swaying the 50 million or so voters to your party so you can acually beat the Democrats? And, I'm assuming that these 50 million voters have to come from somewhere, and you can't clone them or make them up out of thin air, and they probably won't be coming from the liberal Democrat ranks, so most likely, most of them would have to be the very same Republican voters you are referring to in your free beer offer above. I mean if 40 or 50 million Republicans suddenly change their registration to Libertarian (or whatever) are they suddenly different people with different personalities, wants, needs, ideology, etc? I don't get it. If your third party of choice is made up of the very same people we already have, how are they going to be any different? I mean, what (besides party affiliation) would change? And if they did magically all change their registration from "R" to "L" how would that improve their chances of being more successful against the liberals?
