Reply #1: Actually you have a number of parties to choose from

It's just that, for right now, the 'Pugs and the Dems are the two most dominant parties. I suspect that is going to change in the relatively near future. I can foresee the 'Pugs breaking into two separate parties, that of the RW fundies, Palin, Plumber, etc. and one of more moderate conservatives like Snow, etc.

The Dems could also very well suffer from a split as increasingly restless leftists decide that their issues aren't going to get addressed by the Dems, however rather than forge a new party, they will simply go to the Greens.

Frankly I think that this party would be better off with two things happening. First, publicly funded elections, from dog catcher to president. Second, a multitude of parties to represent the multitude of political positions in this country.
