New Political Party: Forward

Today's GOP bears no resemblance to the Republican Party. People should stop referring to it as "the Republican Party."

We have two (major) parties in this country. Let's start calling them what they are:

• the Democratic Party
  
• the Anti-Democratic Party

Some moderate Republicans and moderate Democrats are floating the idea of a centrist party, Forward.

The group cites issues including guns, climate change and abortion as those that could benefit from a moderate approach. The new party will also advocate ranked-choice voting and open primaries, the end of gerrymandering, and nationwide protection for voting rights.

It's a nice idea, but kinda ignores the lifeblood of political parties in this post-Citizens United era, special interest money.
