This is a fertile ground for a reactionary rise to power. Which party do you see as the most likely candidate to sweep in under the guise of accountable, responsible, and honest government?

The people have been known to vote against parties as punishment, thereby enabling others for the wrong reasons. Is this an in for the Tories, do you think?

It's been mentioned recently in another thread: all Americans should read/listen to/or watch one or more of the following:
  • CBC News
  • BBC News
  • The Guardian
You'll get fascinating perspectives of the world outside of the U.S., plus you'll get a fascinating perspective of the U.S.
