one engaging progressive who really understands the frustration and anger of voters, even of teabaggers, could capture the votes of everybody who's feeling screwed over. THIS is the moment when a third party really could change the course of the status quo--but it would require extreme hard work and dedication, because every "mainstream" outlet will be against it, esp. the media, which will always focus on the "2 major parties" (as though they're not really 1 big one). The voters need to overwhelm that machine.

Thank goodness for the Internet, because critical mass could be reached now. A real leader is needed who can galvanize people and give them a central focus of their energy and commitment.
