However, for practical purposes, they will often caucus with one of the two major parties to get access to choice committee assignments and other "team" specific bonuses. They'll deviate from the major party from time to time (on the most salient issues) but for the most part, they'll play ball just like other major party members.

My experience with third partiers is that they're in minor parties because they'd rather cut off their own balls than caucus with their not-batshit-enough ideological allies. Hoffman refusing to sit at the Republican table in the cafeteria would push this beyond "win" straight into "three-game sweep".

Win-win, but I'd prefer the second kind of win. And, if it happens, it's gonna be so exhilarating watching Eric Cantor, David Frum, and Jeb Bush trying to put the beast back into the cage. I wonder how many of them it's gonna bite. Maybe there's a betting site where I can put money on Malkin calling Jeb Bush a liberal by December 2010. Or Erick Erickson having his neanderthals send Jeb a cubic ton of fake dog poop. Let the good times roll. I agree wholeheartedly. Win-win, but I'd prefer the second kind of win.

I just tested your site on IE and it works fine, I dont know what the issue is with everyone else on IE. Anyways, i would also enjoy a Conservative party win. It would make 2010 a hell of a lot more interesting. My primary browser is firefox but I have IE for backup.

I was hoping to discuss the weird ass-jerk that Jeter does when he is trying to sell a ball inside. What are your thoughts? I thought this post was going to be about the Yankees based on the title.

Well, you have a couple of options. You could fix your ie8 settings (Tools > Compatibility View Settings > Display all websites in Compatibility View) or you could use a grown-ups browser. There is nothing wrong with the site. The problem is in your choice of browser and your settings therein. Hmm. Well, you have a couple of options.
