It seems pretty clear to me (especially after Kentucky and Oregon):
1. The Democrats: The party of Jefferson, the oldest political party in the world, has ceased to exist. Obama and Hillary have proved this beyond any reasonable doubt. Most of the major ideas of their respective coalitions are anathema to each other. What could possibly unite them? Even their opposition to Bush can't do that -- everybody is in opposition to Bush.
2. The Republicans: The party of Lincoln, the party formed to save the Union and end slavery, has ceased to exist. McCain and Huckabee have proved this beyond any reasonable doubt. Most of the major ideas of their respective coalitions are anathema to each other. What could possibly unite them? Even their opposition to "Liberalism" can't do that -- everybody is in opposition to what they call "Liberalism."
What's next?
Good question -- glad you asked
"Times, They Are A Changin'" [Robert Zimmerman from Hibbing, MN]
Let's see...
1. From the Democrats will come "The Elitists" and "The Racists" and "Uber Feminists."
2. From the Republicans will come "The Idiots" and "The Fundies" [Oops...they're the same, right?] and "The Plutocrats" and "The Racists" [Wait, that's taken...] Hmmmm....
Only kidding.....hahahhah...not!
Actually, I have no idea....but "Change is Gonna Come"! [Sam Cooke]
