Reply #37: You do realize that a third party can become a major party fairly easily

It happened before with the Whigs, they pissed off their base and lo and behold, four years later they were gone and we had ourselves our first Republican president.

The Dems have just pissed off their base royally, so don't be suprised if they're gone soon. There's only so much that people can take, and for many of us leftists who've stuck with the Dems through thick and thin, this is the last straw.
