Yesterday's vote proves that we ALREADY have a three party system.

[Dawgs]

At least in the Senate...

The way I see it 45% are Democrats, 17% are Independents, and 38% are Republicans. This is a disaster in our current system. The Republicans will never vote with the Democrats, the Democrats will ALMOST never vote with the Republicans, and the Independents will ignore everyone and vote as they wish.

It's obvious to me that the only way to get anything done is to let them compromise; or vote out those that are preventing real change from taking place.

1. No we have two types of dems: Those who serve corporations and those who don't.

We need to filter-OUT the "corporate loving" ones from our party. :thumbsup:

2. 17% aren't independents, they are bought and paid for.

No self respecting Dem wants a free giveaway to the insurance industry.

3. I still see two: Liberals and Corporate Shills.

All the Liberals are in the Democratic Party. All repukes are in the Corporate Party, along with about a quarter of the Dems.

4. Well, Joe Lieberman started the whole independent corporate war mongering sellout

thing. Baucus should stop calling himself a Dem...and others too.

5. You have people with different opinions unlike the lemmings in the GOP
