It could hurt Bush's successor. But I think it could help more based on what I see around me.

I do not necessarily trust parties as such. But I continue to fail to see the advantages of a third party.

FWIW, I'm with the President on this. So the anti-Bush message doesn't score points with me. But you are certainly entitled to you frustration and distrust. I understand it even. I just approach things differently.

But I continue to fail to see the advantages of a third party.

The Republicans and Democrats have gotten too much alike for me, and in areas such as fiscal responsibility and federal government power over the states and the people each is worse than the other. I have little hope for reform from within, so I see the need for another party.

So the anti-Bush message doesn't score points with me.

Please differentiate between being against Bush, which I'm not, and criticism of certain actions and speech on the part of him and his supporters.
