‘Left, Right & Center’: Third-Party Politics

Does America need a third political party? The backlash against Obama on the left and the tepid support for Romney would seem to make this a fine time for an independent party to emerge.

This topic frames the discussion on the Black Friday edition of “Left, Right & Center,” once again featuring the verbal stylings of Arianna Huffington, plus regulars Robert Scheer and Matt Miller and special guest Matthew Continetti, subbing for Tony Blankley on the right.  —KA
