I wonder when there will be official split of parties?

[liberal_at_heart]

There is just about as much animosity among blue dogs and liberals as there is between democrats and republicans. When do you suppose we will see a split?

1. Maybe more.

More animosity, because you expect to disagree with Republicans. You don't expect your own to betray you.

3. I don't feel betrayed. This has been going on for about seven years..n/t

[LWolf]

6. Yes.

The betrayal isn't new.

That doesn't mean that I don't feel it.

2. not sure if that would happen. I have always thought four parties would be ideal,

the Democrats, the Republicans, the Greens, and the Libertarians. That way you have both mainstream and the "more pure" spectrum all covered. And I mean that all 4 parties would be legitimate forces, with equal chances to get candidates elected, up to and including the presidency.

4. That's what Ron and Rand and Jill and Ralph would love to see happen.

Being that 95% of the democratic party supports the President44 and Hillary45,
it is just the same people yapping like always.

80-20 is coming and the 20 will be rendered politically obsolete.

5. Unfortunately we inherited the Blue Dogs/3rd Way from the Republicans.

After they got the DixieCrats from us.
