Incrementalism **Socialist Progressive Group Post **

[TBF]

5. "Problem" may be a strong word -

but it's interesting to note that parties do change historically. We're in the position now where the dems seem to be overtaking the repugs as the status quo party (strongly defending the free market yet obviously more progressive on social issues), while the r's are becoming a more revolutionary party albeit in the quest for social reform of their own making (theocracy). What is a Marxist to do in such a situation? I guess that is what I am grappling over.

This may well work itself out if we see a strong third party run during the election (and then I would most likely take a break in order to participate in that event and perhaps return at a later date).
