Let me rephrase. What I meant is that most Southern Democrats are Blue Dogs. That doesn't mean that only Southern Democrats can be Blue Dogs though.Kmarion wrote:

In its modern usage, this term has come to describe moderate Democrats overall.
The trolls got to me :p There's just so much ignorance and stupidity on display in threads by people like Dilbert that it's really hard to convince myself that I'm not wasting my time by writing longer, more thought out posts that will just be dismissed. I've enjoyed my debates with you but the rest of them act like 12 year olds.Turquoise wrote:

I haven't seen you post 1 longer thought out post. The complete opposite in fact, so much so I thought you were USMarine up until about 4-5 days ago.JohnG@lt wrote:

This from a party who once selected Dukakis.... please...most of them (both sides) are corrupt, power hungry hypocrites. A few good ones come through and that's why I still vote.Dilbert_X wrote:
The Republican party picked Palin -> proves my point.
Who won the election is irrelevant.

When has the PM been anything other than Labour or Conservative in the past 150 or so years?Dilbert_X wrote:
Not so much, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th parties do often control the balance of power, and sometimes 1st or 2nd swap places with 3rd.FEOS wrote:
The UK is really no different. Two major parties, a handful of bit players.

It is not the system. It is the ideology of the other parties. They do not appeal to mainstream America, thus they are marginalized by the population, not the system.Dilbert_X wrote:
In 200 odd years you've effectively had two parties. It IS the system.It's not the system that effectively blocks those parties...it is their ideology.
Poor judgment in selecting a running mate does not equate to fringe elements being majorities.Dilbert_X wrote:

It's fun for you to spout nonsense? You people in Australia really need to get out more.Dilbert_X wrote:
