In response.
Personally i agree that it is unlikely that in a first try a third party would win. You start out roughly 40-40-20 but if the candidates are attractive you could end up with a three way dead heat in short order. Lets say for arguements sake republicans did nominate front runner Frist and dems went with kerry again. McCain-Kerrey or McCain-Giuliani or Powell might quickly gain parity with the majors. Will they have enough money, and enough staying power for the whole race. Dunno.
As far as a moderate ideology that is a bogus argument. Since one party is reactionary and the other bordering on being wedded to old ideas a moderate party with a progressive bent would do just fine. Mike
