"The trouble with third parties like the Greens holding the balance of power or entering coalitions is that it far too often leads them to make compromises"

You call it a bug, I call it a feature.

I believe that most people are more capable in some areas than others, and I hold the same for parties. I want the Greens to exert a stablizing force on foreign policy or even environmental policy, at least bringing up ideas even if they are not adopted by the majority - but I don't want their disastrous economic ideas to get very far. (At the very least, they should be able to demonstrate that their ideas work well within their own communities before introducing them elsewhere.)
