Voters have short memories , conditioned politicos know this , better to say nothing then prolong the story & eventually it will be dropped & the voters will forget & BAM , re-election time comes & the incumbents are back in......Vicious circle , the 3rd Party system , a raucas , legit one would be nice , but try to get everyone on the same page , the agenda would have to be simple , unify under 1 or 2 ideals , like one , being against taxes , & two , stop the BS pork barrel spending , go from there......
