I don’t believe it. The GOP may want to limit the impact of third parties, but it is to the Dem advantage to support them. Here in VA, the Dems strongly supported the inclusion of Virgil Goode (Constitution Party) on the ticket. Right now, the Libertarians and the Constitution partiers will take away Rep voters, which helps Obama.
Think about that next time you screw around.
Party loyalty is a two way street and slavery has been against the law here since Abe Lincoln's time anyway.
