One can expect the pressure to maintain the status quo will indeed increase.<br /><br />As a registered member of one of the 'third parties' I have repeatedly pointed out the failings of the Republocrat faction, and been reviled by Republocrats for 'tempting' members of the local Tea Party to "waste their vote" supporting a third party candidate. My rejoinder has always been that if the Replublocrats want to achieve success it would be best for them to honor their principles. I had particularly harsh words for our State's Republican party chairman the last primary cycle in 2012 in that regard, but it does not appear that he heeded my warnings, witness the runaway success of the Trump candidacy in our fair state. <br /><br />I expect this situation to continue on present course until it can no longer do so, i.e. when the wheels come complete off the cart and 'Atlas Shrugs'. There is little that can be done now to stop it, realistically, but the reason that I continue to fight the war of ideas is that I hope the FreeFor can have significant influence in shaping the aftermath.<br /><br /><br /><br />Historianhttp://www.libertyhollow.weebly.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-11585516749942382002016-05-21T11:27:15.714-04:002016-05-21T11:27:15.714-04:00That's a collateral point, David: both true, a...That's a collateral point, David: both true, and an excellent rationale for looking elsewhere.Francis W.
