How is this current poll any different than past history when it comes to third parties in American politics? We’ve had the Bull Moose Party, the Reform Party, the Dixiecrats and so many more over the past 100 years. This of course doesn’t include today’s Libertarians, Greens and others. The third-party momentum comes and goes over the years but has never gained a permanent foothold. There must be some simple explanation for that, although I have no idea what that is.
It used to be believed that a new national television network could never join the NBC/CBS/ABC party until Fox came along. Perhaps the same could happen to political parties crashing the Democrats and Republicans. Although I don’t see it happening in my lifetime.
