3RD PARTY ANYONE?

I see where Sarah Palin, in her new Sarah Pac video,has officially ordained herself as defacto leader of the Tea Party. What I see here is, her attempt to position herself for a possible 2012 presidential run. I still can't see how she will get there from here,but who knows,stranger things have happened. Politics make for strange bed fellows,so the possibilities are always there. On the other hand I do think that if the current Tea Party candidates fair well in Nov.then the game is on,but, if not, then I don't think the Tea Party will have to much political clout left and just might fade into the sunset. My question still remains, are the American people ready for a viable 3rd party? In my opinion, for a party to be influential and powerful then there candidates must be credible and in touch with what all Americans are concerned with and to sense where America is nationally and on the world stage. Radical agendas only appeal to a small minority of people. Because of  all the media coverage it receives, it sometimes gives politicians a false sense of security concerning what they perceive the electorate wants. Remember the squeaky wheel always gets the grease.
