DUH....
Who didn’t realize this??
Democrats have been funding Libertarians to split the R vote for a decade now.
On the Federal and State Legislator levels this has cost us HUNDREDS of seats in the last 10 years. In the 2008 election alone, I counted 13 House seats we could have won, had the L not split the R vote.
Given what has happened, how much of a difference do you think those 13 seats would have made in the Pelosi-controlled House?
DUH, indeed.
They can whine, but the GOPe will do absolutely nothing about this, nor to prevent it in the future. I am sure they don’t want to win nor be in the amjority. Not enough, anyway.
Candidates can unequivocally appeal to the base, provide a clear opposition, quit schmoozing lobbyists who would just as soon go after a dem, and expect these spoilers, run against them, and quit listening to campaign advisors
Reading the constitution is a good start.
It’s surprising that this game still works...
But there is no doubt that it does.

Yup. And they've been pretty successful in derailing many of our candidates - particularly the more conservative ones.
WHEN will someone on our side start bankrolling Green Party candidates??
