Day By Day March 17, 2010 – Third Party
Day By Day by Chris Muir
Chris, the unfortunate aspect of a third party is that it always leads to a leftward leaning candidate to win. Remember Bill Clinton, Goerge HW Bush and Ross Perot?
There are too many split votes and since the Electoral College is a statewide winner take all election, it makes it real tough for a third party candidate to win – even one state.
In Congressional districts, the state election rules favor the two major parties and make it difficult to even get on the ballot.
The result of Obamacare passing will be massive Tea Party tax and illegal immigration protests, physicans retiring and hospitals closing. For the Republican party, it will mean the regaining of the majority in at least the House.
Stay tuned.
If there is no vote by Friday, I suspect Obamacare is dead.
