That wouldn't fit my description of viability at all, thats more like personal tolerance. A viable third party would be a party that has some chance to compete on a national level and win seats.

The 4low party might be viable at Moab UT, at the local level, but it wouldn't stand a chance in a national election.

Dont expect to see a viable third party in our life time, if ever. I dont think it will ever happen due to the way our party system works. Party members dont have to be accountable to the party platform, or party alliance. This is a complete opposite to many of the countries in Europe that have multiple parties.

Our electoral doesn't support them either.
