I am afraid of third parties as a general rule. It did not work for TR with all his charisma. However, these are strange times and the right candidate at the right time could appeal to many people who are fiscal conservatives, but social moderates- liberals. If someone can harness the anti-tax power, that would tap into something very powerful. I always thought sdgrrl was a reincarnation of someone who was kicked off the boards, but the apology proves she is not. I am no genius, I just like to base arguments more on facts than emotion. I save up my emotional units for more important issues than political discussions. Maybe partypup should run for office. She has a good head on her shoulders, understands the importance of truth and knows how to use the media. What about it pup, are you ready to start a third party?
