Toward a 3rd Party in 2008

Apparently taking my advice, though this poll is from FoxNews:

Nearly half of Americans think it would be good for the country if
an
independent candidate won
the 2008 presidential election, according to the latest FOX News Poll. And
despite acknowledging the improbability of the candidate winning, a majority
says they would consider voting for an independent for president...More than
twice as many voters think it would be good for the country if an independent
candidate were to win the White House in 2008 than think it would be bad (45
percent good, 19 percent bad). In addition, there is rare partisan agreement on
the issue as 42 percent of Democrats and 44 percent of Republicans think
electing an independent candidate would be good for the country, as do 56
percent of self-described independents.


My point is, considering the power of the New Media, including bloggers, talk radio, and satellite news, now is the time to organize. Rather this than casually waiting for the next round of censorship legislation from the declining elites in Washington, who feel threatened by the change.

Update:Is Fred Thompson thinking what I'm thinking?
