I am afraid it’s now time to look for a third party candidate. We are not getting the bang for the buck with the current tank of spineless jellyfish. We need energized candidates to run for congress. A blazing and most angry candidates to run for President. Candidates who are willing to resist the allurement of huge sums of corporate and special interest money. Candidates whose own bias can possibly be changed by the wishes of the average voter. A man or woman willing to knock on every door in his or her district.
Well then, If not just a third party candidate, how about a third party. A party without rigid ideology. A third party with wiggle room. A collective of people wanting more from their representatives than snarky bloviating answers.
It’s time to tell the Republican and Democrat parties they have lost relevance with the grass roots. Both parties have morphed into a stodgy circle of covered wagons. A bit too defensive and following the drum of easy money. And for sure blinded by the lobbyist’s warm and fuzzy headlights.
While Congress is in the muck and mire of septic tank politics, the constituency back home is becoming more and more angered and frustrated. Frustrated over the “Do Nothing” congress. A congress that has lost its wheels and lays in the ditch. Uncompromising, self-absorbed, narrow minded, self-righteous, and totally in lock step with partisan dogma. Never mind what real problems exist back home. A bunch of three ring circus beeping-chuckling-water squirting-grease painted-red nosed clowns. Blustering buffoons all of them.
But anyway, a viable third independent party could easily change politics, as we know it. I’m not talking TEA Party. I’m not talking one issue monkey wrench politics. I am talking about a third way that could have the clout and determination to pressure the old ways into non-existence by sheer grunt work. Push the partisans into a middle lane and hopefully get something done for the people. Something like compromise and for the greater good. Mr. Smith goes to Washington kind of politics and getting it done. Think independent. Think real change. Think past party boss politics. Let the people do the talking and make the representatives do the hard walking. It’s time to fix and flip congress. Go Independents!
