When I look at how Euro style multi party systems actually work I'm glad we dont have that shit here. After the election they are scrambling to sell out their values faster than day old fish in order to cobble together a coalition majority.
In the US what would haev been separate parties become wings within the Dems or GOP. So they're jockying takes place within the party, saving us from the spectacle of back room dealing after the election.
I do know what you mean, but usually it is fairly clear before an election who can work with who and at what price. I do agree that coalition politics can be dirty, though.
But at leat multi-party politics gives voters a choice you seem to be currently denied.
