Reagan, Dole, McCain...

Do I need to say more?

"I can only tell you that I don't think Senator Dole is too old to be president," he said. "It's the age of his ideas that I question."

well, it is like this: the two party system is alot like your locally authorized lincoln-mercury dealer. you can buy any car you want as long as it is a lincoln or a mercury. or the WWE: anyone can be champion that vince mcmahon says can be champion.
the parties have a duopoly/monopoly/oligarchy/stranglehold on power. they all get paid in the end. the "leadership class" wins with either party in power, it is a closed loop.

Now..now..now..that's not very nice.

Of course it's not as bad as calling them:

Geezer
Old
Party

Great
Ogling
Party

Gay
Out
Party

Gay
Outhouse (pun intended on the "out" part)
Party

Feel free to make up your own.
