Is it time to go third party?

Here’s a message I just sent to Tony Romo of the local Constitutional Party. I just wanted to get my opinions on this out there.

I don’t think that parties are obstacles. I think that the mindset and values of those who control the parties are the obstacles and the enemies. We have a war of values and ideals on our hands, and we need to target that.

Those who know me well will tell you that I’m passionately opposed to Republican elitism and so-called “moderate” Republicans, and I am not interested in helping the GOP get and maintain power. More and more I believe that at least on the Federal level the Republicans and Democrats are all controlled by a single larger scheme, agenda, or machine.

With that said, I do believe that the Republican party is still the most viable vehicle for conservatism (although if Sarah Palin decides to start or join a third party and the tea party groups all over the US rally around her it could be a historically unusual opportunity to make it work, and I would definitely support her in such a move). Blame the drivers of the party, not the party itself. I guess right now I’m more of a puritan than a separatist.
