There are more than two parties.  But I know what ya meant, no worries.  The democrat and republic parties win everything.

Ja.  The interesting part to me is in reading the 24 election post mortem.  They don't get what is perfectly obvious to me: they have two factions which not only fight each other, they divide the party.  One or the other of them hasta go, and it hasta be very unambiguous, very public, out ya go, ejection from the big tent.  The republic party must then be very clear, it doesn't want them either.  Until then, I am holding the opinion that the USA has formed a third mainstream party, but hasn't bothered to rename it yet: two of the three parties go under the same name.
