Major political parties[edit]
Per Merriam-Webster, a major party has "electoral strength sufficient to permit it to win control of a government usually with comparative regularity and when defeated to constitute the principal opposition to the party in power."[1]. In the United States, only the Democratic and Republican parties meet this definition.

Is the GOP a dead party?
They can't do something they promised for 7 years. Repeal and replace. They obviously spent zero time during the last 7 years coming up with a different plan. How is this even possible?
Then you get stabbed in the back by McCain, as well as Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine. These 3 morons believe that Obamacare is better.
McCain wants us to go back and work with the dems! LOL! You mean like how they worked with the GOP to pass Obamacare? Without a single GOP vote? How about the fact that Dems have no interest in bipartisanship or repeal n replace? Did you think of that Johnny?
So now with a epic fail that is the GOP; They have become a redundant party. A party that capitulates, gives up, and can't get anything accomplished. Democrats ban together and stick to their own and pass omnibus bills. Spending bills, Obamacare bills. Yeah! They get it all. When the GOP is in charge, you get NOTHING!
Levin is supporting the idea of a true 3rd party. Yes it will split the "GOP" vote, but why does it matter at this point?
I think we need to change election laws, that support the 2 party system. We need to move to a multiparty system like the rest of most democracies. 2 parties is a disaster.

There are only two parties that matter in this country. Everything else is illusion, or just a protest vote. I've made a couple.
But the reality is that the only votes that elect American presidents have a D or an R behind the candidates name.

If a third party has anything that is selling it is usually absorbed into one of the two major parties, 19th Century Populist Party is a good example, or the Townsend Clubs of the 1930s
Besides, the vast majority of those nations with multi parties are parliamentary governments, which of course we are not
