Do you think it is time for a third viable political party?

It seems to me that the dems are too far to the left and the republicans can at times come down too far to the right and neither party really represents the heart of mainstream America. We could use a third party that truely represents what Americans really think, not what Hollywood thinks and not what big business thinks. The money talks and that is all we hear. It is time for the rest of us to create a platform of acceptable politicians from the left and right that more clearly represent our true beliefs. I vote for Joe Lieberman & John McCain to start.

90% of our elected officials are crooks and care only for themselves and for any who could line their pockets.
A third party cannot come too soon
are to far to the right? there is not a hairs difference between the dems and reps except for sound bites. Liberman and McCain are just as phoney as the other politicians. I believe McCain is a brave and honorable man for what he did during the Viet.War but in the last eight years he has turned into just another politician that will say anything to get elected.
We need a viable third party with a competent alternative to the sound bite crowd. We need a populace that will vote for someone even though they are not the favorite or have a viable chance to win. We all vote for who we think will win and not for whom we believe will do a good job.
If you need proof, read the party platforms going back through the years.
There was a time when Democrats opposed communism, were pro-life, pro-military and lowered taxes.
Need more proof?
Name three pro-life Democrats. (and I mean those that vote pro-life, not Harry Reid democrats that are pro-life only when running for office).
