(5,082 posts)You despise the idea of a 3rd party and are happy with the corrupt 2 party system BUT you support a Democratic candidate that is so far to the right relatively speaking that a victory for her could ensure a bifurcation of such coveted party and Progressives giving up reforming internally and splitting off to form their own party like the Tea Party did. Isn't this counter productive as it will siphon of and dilute Democratic Party support? Big $ ensured that Tea Partiers ran within the Republican Party but it seems to me people in both parties want more choices and more parties. I was fine with remaining in the Democratic Party but if they go further right and elect Republican-Lite which is just the same as a 1992 Republican then I will assume our party has been hijacked and if Big $ prevents a purge then it's time to do something different. No more Joe Lieberman charlatans...anyone can run as a Democrat...even a fascist KKK member could.
