Changing Political Landscape

First let me state up front that the GOP is not going away. There is far too much at stake for corporations to allow the party to ever become irrelevant. Besides, our adversarial system and the vast spectrum of perspectives, goals, needs and wants will ensure that there will be at least two parties for any foreseeable future.

I think the long term trend is fairly clear.
