How about a new Political party, one that truly represents the majority of Americans

The election held in Ohio yesterday looked all too familiar with the exception of the Democratic candidate that lost, Paul Hackett.

Why not consider the formulation of a 3rd Political Party, made up from Centrists and Moderates. This is a topic today on

. We could hope to peel away Democrats and Republicans from the middle of their parties and leave what's left, the extremes, to fight on.

This party would need a new name so as not to tread on other less popular parties names. We could have a contest to name the Party, put position papers out on very contoversial topics. For example, we could say we are the Pro-Adoption party. Who could argue with that. We could stand for such unpopular notions as "no taxation without accountability". I know you almost thought "no taxation without representation" but heck, we have plenty of so-called representation and they haven't represented me in years. If somehow we could organize and define the centrist postion on many of today's major issues, it might attract candidates to consider us. Another example is Iraq and where's the Plan. If we stated we wanted to add many more troops to secure areas around Iraq, allowed the EU to train more Iraqi's and also allowed them to participate fully in reconstruction for profit, they would join in. Money has a way of changing minds.

So think about it. What could we do if we were serious?
