Future of the Democratic Party
Advertisements [?]
I think progressive forces should ditch it and disband it. Lending support for Democratic Party means supporting the two-party system and ultimately legitimicing one party rule. Republicans need the legitimicy given by "opposition" more than progressives need a Party of Institutional Loosers and Enablers, which, let's face it, is equally corrupt. If Republicans are denied the focus given by opposition, they too will ultimately break down.

Soviet Union and US needed each other to divide and rule the world; and so do Republicans and Democrats need each other to divide and rule Americans. Stop playing their game, join the Greens, Socialists or start a new party, let the DLC keep their "moderate" center party.
