I know I'm not a federalist but,
Why not a merge with the DRs?
Considering Pit is back and would fit well in both of these parties...
I mean, I can see 2 major problems with the former divide:
- it has worsened the relations between the libertarians and the socons. See the last presidential election, not all
- it has worsened the relations between the "right" and the "center": Duke facing a primary by Reaganfan, and then a challenge by Spiral.
I believe that a new divide Fed (merge between the libertarians and the fed party)/Civic Union would work better.
- I believe it is not difficult to unite the libertarian wing and the socon wing. Except some exceptions like TJ/Maxwell, the libertarians and the socon wing have many similarities. Indeed, the socon wing like JCL and DC is quite libertarian on some issues (like drugs, etc...) and the libertarian wing can be quite conservative on some issues (Madmanmotley, shua being pro life for example).
The biggest problem of the right actually I believe is that they don't manage to appeal enough to the "center" in order to win. That's why the divide moderate/ right would work much more. The right holding the most conservative seats in the most conservative regions, the "center" winning the swing regions etc.
Because seriously, a coalition of 3 PARTIES will never work in the long term. See Germany, the coalitions that works are always 2 parties, coalition of 3 parties always backfire.
Because honestly, come on, there are no difference between the current future fed chairman Pit and the DR chairman.
A 2 rightwing parties system would work: one moderate and one rightwing. If for instance it would have been Duke/Maxwell instead of Duke/Matt, I don't think there would have been problems with the right!
