:dubious: Mmm-hm. But how many of those would be willing to bolt the Dems and join her new party? That’s the problem here, see. A third-party candidate needs some base that feels unrepresented by the main parties’ options. Nader found his to the left of the Dems, Buchanan to the right (for certain values of “right”) of the Pubs. Perot tried to carve out a space between the Pubs and Dems, but they both work so hard to play to the center that that’s very difficult to do.
I generally agree with you here, especially the smart part. But, just as an intelligent man like Wright can emgage is sabotaging behavior because of his personal flaws (had to link that), Hillary’s ego, drive and lack of ethics will out – that why I can see a shadow run for 2012 as she stumps forn Obama, if he wins the nom.
I may be a little presumptuous here, but I’m sure Liberal was being somewhat facetious.
