Are the Liberals ready to get this party started yet?

Mission accomplished if both parties work together to fix immigration, the war, wasteful spending, keep taxes lower, etc.\nThen a balance of power between the 2 parties will be good.  \nThe Dems did not like their absence of power and thwarted the GOP.  I hope they are happier now and more willing to compromise.

Its getting harder to tell the difference. Republicans are going to get creamed this fall so they should enjoy it while they can.

I'm a liberal and I really don't care... that's not one of my party's "core issues"... it's like saying "why do all conservatives want to be able to own automatic weapons?"... many conservatives don't care about automatic weapons.... some do...\n\nit's a fringe issue and not really what's important right now...

Brilliant!!!! The conservatives, traditionalists, and republicans would be wise to start coalescing, and forming a strategy now. Many of your Ideas are doable, and would be a great platform to run on. Count me in. Many of these things could have been acted upon during the past six years, but partisan thinking reared it's ugly head and those years were wasted. The republicans will return, and take the country in a proper direction, not just a (new direction).

I pray they do.  I'm terrified to think liberal will be in charge of this country.

Oh absolutely. The cure for liberalism is education and intelligence. As long as Democrats can keep people poor and hopeless, and blame "the Man" then they have a constituency. When people are not desperate, it's too difficult to pull the wool over their eyes.

I would likely support it. We need a more centralist party. One without the extreme views of both R's an D's. One that looks out for the interests of the middle class.

Yes! The democrats have to do something bold. There is no solid leadership in the party. Bush has given the democrats so many opportunities to capitalize on his failings, but all they do is whine. A bold, positive agenda for reform would be a fantastic way to get out of the doldrums the democratic party has been in these last few years. It seems all the democrats want to do is whine, but propose no real solutions. It turns people off to the democrats -- including me, and I am one. We need a positive action plan, not just criticism.

I would LOVE to see a real opposition party. I don't think it's gonig to happen though. We'll be stuck with the same 2 choices we always have, corruption or corruption.\n\nI hope, but doubt, that the Democrats rediscover enough of their collective spine to actually put forth some workable ideas. If they do it'll be a change for a party that stands for so little these days. \n\nPeople say there are two Americas. I think there are at least three. \n\nOne is Bush's America: an combination of the extreme Christian "neo-conservatives," corporate interests, the growing national police state, and payola. \n\nAnother is the Democratic "left": lots of ideas, but not enough balls to make them happen. \n\nI suspect there's a third America: members of an increasingly radical middle that will become more obvious in the next few years, tolerant of those who are different and aware that the big problems of our times are being ignored -- or made worse -- by those in power today. \n\nThat third America needs a candidate. Or, maybe, a new party.

You realize you hurt your cause by asking this question. First off, I thought liberals were the ones who wanted to raise taxes, right? \nTell the truth? Hello, can we look at who's in office right now?\nI don't know where you got your info, but I don't think you're going to get a whole lot of support.

I haven't seen any up-and-coming democrats.  I'm starting to get worried.  The party is still unfocussed, and right now there are marvelous opportunities with so many in the republican party under investigation or in other trouble - the demos need to take action!  \n\nbtw – thanks for your nice answer to my question tonight!  I like you, you’re cool.

Ok let me say this first, I am a far left liberal democrat.\n\nWith that said, I have recognized recently the country's dire need to meet in the middle. The public is crying out of this. They seem to be screaming, "Stop the fighting, bantering."\n\nSo, I have vowed to surrender some of my far left views and accept a centrist candidate. I will gladly do this because I feel it is best for the country in many ways. \n1. It will start the healing.\n2. It will stop this crazy division.\n3. It really is the best for the country in the long run.\n4. It is the only way to get anything fixed or accomplished.

On immigration, they have about the same ideas as Bush. You should check their website, if you really want to know. There are no party spokespeople here.
