[Final Authority]

I have written about the triangulation going on between the parties especially during the debates over whom should sit on the supreme court. So many cool-aide GOP drinkers think GWB has them in his interests with respect to the abortion issue but the abortion issue is precisely an issue that the parties do not wish to quiet or solve, to agree on, or to come to some middle ground. GWB will never place on the supreme court anybody who will vote with the majority to overturn Roe because doing so will quiet all of those pro-life money contributors who have been in the GOP corner. If it wasn't for abortion many voters could consider a third party, as a third party candidate, like Perot, would need to take a neutral position on abortion to garner enough support to be competitive. Take away the abortion issue and see the rise of a national third party.

Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner folks! This is exactly what has been done to us over the past century.
