I'm sitting here thinking, and as we all know that can be dangerous for me, but I couldn't help draw a parallel between what is going on in our union and the national political scene. With a few exceptions, we have a two party system for national politics. I submit we have the same thing in our union. Each "party" seems to be dominated by individuals that, for lack of a better word, lean towards zealotry for their respective sides.

I submit that we, the union, need a third party to represent those of us in the middle who see the good and bad from both sides.
