It remains all too true, however, that the Reform Party of the United States is moving quickly on down the road of division and never-ending squabbling that has defined the socialst movement in this country for decades now and has resulted in such organizations as the Socialist Workers Party (now a shell of its former glorious self); the Communist Party USA and the Democratic Socialists of America (both now almost front groups for the Democratic Party - what irony there!), and the tiny Socialist Party USA (of which I belong to but do not see it growing unless it makes some changes). Let those of us in the third party movement not let the two major parties continue to defeat us (partly) through our own inability to get our acts together. Fortunately, though, the Green Party of the United States (of which I also belong) does seem to be making some good progress. In addition, that is where where the action is going to be in 2008!
