So long as voters are apathetic and not telling Democrats and Republicans to get bent?
You may not have noticed, but this is coming very close to happening this year. The Republican voters have just nominated a candidate with virtually no history in the party and on the Democratic side, a guy who wasn't even a party member until he decided to run for POTUS is only 300 elected delegates (out of over 2700 awarded) the 'other half' of the most popular Dem administration in the last 50 years.
That's as about as clear a 'get bent' message as they come....

Perhaps, but Perot's clearly huge numbers for a third party candidate didn't make a dent in them changing their ways. I remain pessimistic that the current primaries will sway party leaderships to change their ways.
