Mark: I would agree that one party in the USA wants a one-party rule. There are social/political forces in Canada shaping up in this way, but the Canadian numbers are not quite there yet to effect a takeover. `. I say 30% is a enough.

I didn't quite say this, but if a concerned American has to hold his/her nose while canvassing for the Democrat Party, that is still the best political activity that person can employ for the country. The more Democrats in Congress and state legislatures, the better. Given the so many close races, canvassers can have an effect here.
