There's only one extreme in US politics at the moment, the far-right. The Republicans are currently a far-right party operating at a level not to far off the Nazi party c. 1936 (aside from the anti-semitism). The Democrats are, in modern terms, a centre-right party, but given the centre has been dragged to the far right over the last thirty years, in proper terms they are hard-right. Yes, you've got sections of the Democrat party which could properly be termed social democrat, but social democracy was never, nor can never be legitimately, termed a hard left grouping. The enviornmentalist and shoppers rights Green party, and the ideologically incoherent Libertarians are too small to matter, even at a localised level.
So at the moment in US politics you've got the far right opposed by the hard right. And, frankly that is virtually no choice at all.

Either you're stupider than all get out or you're a far-right conspiracy theorist? I'd like to know because then I'd know on what grounds it is correct to ignore your constant and blatant lies.
