Will the parties switch positions in the next 50 years?

[tarheel-leftist85]

what's to switch if their positions are the same?  Obama/Dems passed Mitt Romney's insurance/pharma bailout.  O lobbied for Bush/Paulson/Bernake's bankster bailouts, we're still funding mercs in Af-Pak and Iraq.  Really, what's the difference?  Oh, they have different niche markets:  the young "urban" intellectuals versus the pious cowboys.  That their positions (and goal) are identical is only part of it; the parties are mutually-reinforcing agents of this policy, such than when one legacy party becomes temporarily unmarketable, the other assumes control and perpetuates the same policy outcome trajectory and impressing the illusion of choice upon the public (not that all of them believe it).
