They decide which half of the duopoly gets elected. Big accomplishment.

Yes. Big accomplishment. The only one that matters. So, your impotent protest aside, you understand.

[LeroyDumonde]

Most third parties are far left. I would not want them in power except as an accelerant. Their insanity would drive people to the right. Despite my issues with the Constitution the Constitution Party is the best alternative to the duopoly, but I don't see them being able to capture the majority of independent voters even if independent were willing to vote for something other than the duopoly.
