Why must the middle consist of wishy-washy parasites?
If a Congressman does not have strong beliefs, why would he or she run? Might I suggest power, wealth via public expense, lack of job skills?
Surely the American people could see through such perversions of governance.
The fact is true progressivism, liberalism, socialist-fascism, whatever you care to call it, is totally incompatible with Conservatism. There is no more a workable middle than there is common ground between oil and water.
Nor should there be.
You may ask how to solve this? Change the debate.
There is one political ideology that can achieve successful governance using moderation of its left and right wings. Libertarianism. Imagine how much freer the US would be if the political debate was between a secularist Libertarian and say a Religious Right Conservative with Libertarian coloring. The objective remains, minimize government in people's lives, no matter which wins. There would be culture war battles, but balanced budgets year in and year out would do more for this country than any short term takeover of power by either party we currently have.
What is needed is a revolution in the way Americans look at their government. When they see it not as a provider but a hindrance and danger, real progress and Liberty will naturally find their step as intended by the fathers of old.
