    Since America can’t seem to sustain more than two parties, I think we’ll see the end of the Republican Party in the next 8-10 years. The Libertarian Party will naturally seem to be the replacement, but it of course will instantly be infiltrated by the same Republican scumbags who are ruining it now.

      The two parties have stacked the rules in their favor. The list is the subject of brooks but includes taxpayer matching funds each election for themselves, and burdensome signature requirements each election for their opponents.

      I am a lifetime member of the LP and would like to see them strengthen, but my odds are with Ron and Rand Paul’s supporters taking over the Republican Party and displacing poker players like “last-in-his-class” John McCain.

        The fatal flaw to the LP is they sort of by definition dislike structure and organization. If someone tries to organize them, they’ll resist being controlled.

        Here is my answer for the budget impasse – next continuing resolution authorize spending at only 80% of the prior year budget. If you want more for some really important program, then you have to pass a supplemental appropriation – returning power of the purse to the House, but without “shutting the government down”.

          Do that every year and eventually, we can “Dodge” the Detroit train wreck ahead.

          BTW- You’re right about the LP. Historically it was led by a group that was more interested in defining the ideology and making it pure than by people seeking to win elections.

          For a time, that included the abortion issue. By definition, libertarians believe that government should protect people’s Constitutional rights, but could not agree on whether a fertilized embryo was a person that was Constitutionally protected.

          Ron Paul was pressed by the media on that issue and his response was that abortion was not an issue he was running on. He had clear objectives that he defined and by doing so had both supporters and foes that saw the abortion issue different then he did – he personally was against it, it didn’t matter because he had suggested no changes in current Federal law regarding abortion.

          That is the way to win elections- not try to persuade voters that your view on every issue is the correct view, but to identify key areas needing attention and solutions to improve those areas.
