Reply #76: You Guys Aren't Paying Attention.... 2008 Is Going to be Completely [View All]

[radio4progressives]

up for grabs by a PLETHORA of "THIRD" PARTIES ...

Both Dems and Repukes are in for a huge shock, and so are apparently some at DU.. (not to those who have been paying any attention to events in recent days/weeks/months/years)...

It's the Civil War in Iraq, it's the Threat to Bomb Iran into Smithereens which in turn is a threat to bombing the fuck out of us into smithereens -

it's about Labor Unions organizing for their own party (given all the recent advertisements from Labor on AAR that the Dems have abandoned Labor... what? don't any of you listen to Air America, ever?)

African Americans organizing their own party, (Dems have abandoned AA community)

and now the PORTS issue. like no other issue before has shocked even the kool aid drinking bush bots out of their five year hypnosis - they are disgusted, disillusioned, angry and looking away from the party, (no, these aren't the same people who thought Repukes were out of control before this past week)

I could go on, these are yet just a few examples of events that have given rise to "third party" organizing like i haven't seen in years - much more than the surprising Reform Party in '92, no Greens aren't even on the radar anymore so don't look to vilify them, they will probably put someone up to stay in the game a few more election cycles, but Greens will be the least of the worries for Dems.

This Neo Conservative agenda I believe will come to ever blessing end (i hope and pray) but what will take it's place is up for grabs by Third Parties which are currently organizing from Labor to Libertarians to African Americans to Progressives and so on, because we have no Opposition party as a counter veiling force against the fascist regime, it's been virtually non-existent. That isn't something Hillary Clinton, or Wesley Clark, or any of the other hot contenders will be able to come close to representing in the future, because they've had their opportunity and they've squandered it.

It pretty much seems to me that the two party system is dead.

If this pans out, we had better get behind Labor imo - but Labor had better not let themselves be bamboozled by someone who has never represented the interest of the working class as the most pressing issue (domestically).

If Labor can find people on all government office levels to represent the interest of the working class people, we kill the Neo Conservative agenda and the far right wing extremist along with their wacko fundies dead until they are resurrected again into some other demonic form.

RIP
