No Labels Party 2024?

Why do I always feel like anyone who claims to be bipartisan is actually a leftist?
This group isn't ideologically different than RINOs and moderate Democrats (if such a group exists); they're just not happy with their current candidate(s).

No Labels insists they are not actively considering any specific candidates for a Unity Ticket, nor are they running a campaign, but whispers in Washington and in political circles suggest political moderates are being eyed for the effort, including Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, Massachusetts Republican Gov. Charlie Baker and Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan.
quote:
No Labels officials and insiders say both the Republican Party and Democratic Party are becoming increasingly extreme and need to make a change to attract voters for 2024.
"We hope both parties don’t keep going down this road, and if they make a course correction, so will No Labels," chief strategist Ryan Clancy told Fox News. "But if they don’t, this election is too important to force Americans to pick the least bad candidate or to stay home."
"Three-quarters of the country thinks we’re on the wrong track – and that includes majorities of Democrats, independents and Republicans," Clancy said. "Most Americans don’t have favorable views of either party or the top leaders in them, and they think both sides are too captive to the extremes."
quote:
There is, however, a chance a unity ticket could have unintended consequences, by drawing support away from the 2024 Democratic or Republican nominees.
For that reason, No Labels told Fox News it will wait as long as possible for a final decision to offer a ballot lineup to a unity ticket.
"We have no interest in creating a Ralph Nader-type spoiler," White said. "If this path outside the two major party candidates is not needed, No Labels will stand down."

Because you are on the RIGHT, and anything LEFT of you must be LEFT. RIGHT?

Fair point.
Not taking a stand by supporting a party that chooses neutrality seems pretty feckless.
Just my opinion.

Exactly. Just like terrible super progressives swear than CNN is "right leaning," when the bottom line is 11 out of 12 people in America don't identify as progressives. It's just that progressives and Trump occultists are so loud and occupy so much of the breathing room that their numbers seem larger.

Shouting and pouting on the internet is really easy. Actually governing is really hard. "Compromise is the spirit of democracy."

I like the idea of having more than two choices. Many parties does offer the chance for minority political opinions to have outsized influence though. Can be good or bad.

I live in a heavy GOP area. If any Dem runs for local office they just put 'i' for independent on the ballot. But people here know it means they are Dems.

I welcome this... Maybe it can splinter our parties up and even more options. We have so many options in life except in the ballot box. Forced to make a decision of the lessor of two evil.
