It is a mess, and it is going to get worse before it gets better. Rush was right yesterday. There are the makings of a Conservative divorce from the Republican party if things don't calm down soon.

Where do conservatives go? To the dims? No. To an independent party?

So where do we go? I'm not being flippant, I'm being serious. Because the way things are right now, the only chance of accomplishing anything is within the two-party system. And there aren't enough of us ... and I may get flamed for this, but IMHO folks who believe like we Freepers do, I'm not talking about how they vote but what they believe in their heart of hearts, are a minority in this country ... to go third party with any success whatsoever.

Honestly, I think this has been coming in for the last 10 years.

It is much more difficult to be a majority party, then the minority party. It's the same dynamic that keeps Super Bowl winners from dominating year after year.

The win is often more about heart than fundamentals...and it throws the teamwork angle into disarray.
