That simple fact is lost on a lot of people.

After 2000, the dims will never lend any support to a leftist third party unlike the conservatives that vote for a libertarian with NO CHANCE OF WINNING just to "send a message". It's called party discipline and this is why they can win pretty easily in 08 if the right doesn't rally around the nominee. People forget that all they needed is a few hundred thousand votes in Ohio and we would be surrendering in as many languages as Mrs Hines can speak.

Ever since 92, I've been screaming as loud as I can that if you don't VOTE Republican for everything, you are voting democrat. If the thought of Hitlery taking your money for the greater good and Bill with his wandering cigars selling the Lincoln bedroom to the highest bidders is not enough motivation, you should move to Canada.

The Rockefeller wing put up a moderate in 1996 - Bob Dole - and banged the same tired drum about party loyalty while Dole was out there saying that he was going to ignore the socially conservative planks of the party platform. And even after 4 years of corruption and liberalism under Bill Clinton the Rockefeller wing still lost us the election.

And they want a reply of the same failed strategy now, but instead of a moderate they're putting up an outright liberal candidate. It is a strategy doomed to failure.
