2016 Prediction

[Polaris]

Progressives can vote Green.

Yeah...thanks. That fuckheaded strategy stuck us with Bush the Dumber.

Oh you're one of those people....if all you offer is horseshit, don't expect people to eat it up.

Republicans may win by a narrow margin because the Democrats have been sabotaging themselves since Obama took office (well starting in 2006, which is why the Tea Party had such an unexpected success).

The Tea Party is unpredictable, and might hurt the GOP more than help it. They seem to strike a chord among the rank-and-file conservatives and pseudo-libertarians much more so than the Green Party does among liberals. Because the USA has limited itself to two distinct political parties, the main effect any third party has is to drain votes from one of the two. The extreme polarization of politics here makes a mockery of the democratic ideal. We're only one choice short of having no choice at all.

That's because the majority of American liberals (especially the ones who prefer to play the blame game instead of seeking for reform) don't end up being all that liberal when it comes down to it. I went to this site called Huffington Post and as soon as the Democrats there found out what actually adopting progressive reform meant, they would turn into Republican clones with their BS excuses. Then again, many of the people on that site came off as conservatives pretending to be liberals because it was the cool thing to do.
