A Third Political Party

I have often seen Peggy Noonan as part of the problem, a Reagan foot soldier with great writing skills, but that being said, I often check-out her columns as she appears to have grown wiser and less party loyal as the years goes by. I just read an article she wrote on the possible development of a third political party, entitled, "Third Time" and she happens to be making a lot of sense. I've often cynically thought a "third party president" was a complete impossibility, sort of like my beloved Red Sox winning the World Series and probably as enjoyable (well almost). I thought John McCain might try it when his last presidential campaign was torpedoed by Karl Rove and the Christian Militia, but he didn't have the nads or the inclination to cut his party ties and kick the Republican Party where it hurts, that being said, maybe he should have. Today McCain dines with Jerry Falwell and Hillary backs the prez in Iraq and both parties crap down the back of the American people. Time for a change, but does anyone see an organization or candidate capable of defeating the giant two-party, political whore masters at their own game? Keep the Naders, Perrots and Clooneys on the sidelines and lets seriously start thinking of alternative before this whole situation gets even worse.
