Doubt it. Neither party has real principles - both are the Parties of Getting Re-elected.

The Democrats, for some reason, have decided their future lies to the far left and they're marching that way: citizenship for illegals (Democrats had more to with the Senate Shamnesty bill than the 'Pubbies), votes for felons, Kos, DU, MoveOn, etc.

As the Democrats move left, they uncover a bunch of center-left votes. The 'Pubbies, seeing this, are considering dumping their right-most wing (religous, pro-life, pro-gun, pro-family, pro-small government, anti-tax) etc., to pick up the votes the Democrats are abandoning. They figure they'll gain more than they lose.

The right-wingers like myself - where can we go? As long as we don't go Democrat, the 'Pubbies don't lose that much.

Your reply is cryptic. What do you "doubt"? And what is the mechanism by which "right wingers" will "go", which you say won't hurt Pubbies that much as long as you don't "go" Democrat? If the Pubbies don't lose all that much, what is the point of a third party? How will you get them to do what you want if you leave their party AND it doesn't hurt them too much?
