Attack on voting

Fuck the two party system.

It' s time to illegalize such blatant grabs at holding power.

I've seen very similar numbers myself.  I think it represents the fact that voters are not as extreme as the parties.  Those that identify as independent are actually the swing vote.  They mostly vote D or R, but could swing from one cycle to another.  Making political parties illegal is probably not constitutional, so that wouldn't work.  We've always had progressives and conservatives and they are always battling.

I should also point out that during the party flip you mentioned, the Democratic Party itself didn't change so much as all the racists fled the party and went to the GOP because the Democratic party was more progressive on civil rights.  That hasn't always been the case.  In the early 20th century, the GOP was pretty progressive, and don't forget it's first POTUS was Abe Lincoln, who was an extremist progressive.
Why is it so?
