At the national level I think it'll be a two party system forever - actually
really only at the Presidential level. I do think that organized third
parties could very well make great inroads in local politics and even at the
senatorial and congressional levels.

One of the commentators on Pacifica's coverage of the Democratic
convention made an interesting point -- a lot of politicos focus
straight on the national level and perhaps it is time that people
started running for the grunt-work jobs like the school board and the
city council. It is a lot easier to effect change when you have a
broad base of support at the local level. It's an interesting idea and
perhaps a place for a third party to go. I don't see a third-party
candidate winning for president for quite some time.
