Yes, I should have made that clear. I think the mean we'd regress to is two parties, in whatever fashion.What if instead of being gulped up by one of the two existing parties it gulped up one of them, fundamentally altering their philosophy and their party platforms?
I am not advocating, necessarily, a continuously extant third party. I am advocating for something not status quo.
And I can dig the advocacy for changing the status quo. I'd love to look at something like ranking candidates on a ballot with 1st, 2nd, 3rd choice, etc. Someone a lot smarter than me could work out the details and the downstream effects.
