John Boehner Resigns

ONE DOWN, 434 TO GO

Celebrate, Cry, it doesn't matter.  The body politic is hopelessly corrupt and nothing's going to change. That's my heartfelt opinion and it would seem the opinion of a majority of Americans.  In a Gallup Poll released Friday 60% of Americans want a third party. The question asked was this:

“In your view, do the Republican and Democratic parties do an adequate job of representing the American people, or do they do such a poor job that a third major party is needed?” 

78% of Independents, 47% of Democrats (Do you find that surprising?), and 45% of Republicans want a third major party.  That ties back to the sentiment in a September 19th Poll in which 75% answered Yes to the question:

"Is Corruption widespread throughout the government in this country, or not?"

 It also explains why outsiders are dominating this election cycle amid a climate of apathy and disgust.

So John Boehner's gone and I'm pretty much indifferent to it, how about you?
