"I dunno what the answer is for sure.....but IMHO it's not a 3rd party."
The problem is... in the American system a third party simply splits the right-wing vote and leaves the more unified left to win big. The solution is to work within the GOP, or possibly even the Democratic party to start making some changes.

I don't understand how the same people who talk about choice in schools, taxes, etc, can then say we should only have to choose between two parties. Two parties who care more about getting power than doing something when they get there. The could lose votes if they do that, ya know. If you keep voting for someone or their party, they're going to think they're doing a fine job. So why should they change? They need a kick in the a**. Sometimes you have to take a few steps back to move forward, if you know what I mean.
