That's fair.
But I think the two-party circus tends to make people play down the horribleness of their own team. I'm glad you're not guilty of that.
From my pov two party system is crap designed to make politicians life easier. One does not have to put much effort when there isn't much to choice from; it promotes complacency in politicians who merely have to say that they aren't as bad as their opponents.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
