 WorldNetDaily: Hamstringing minor political parties   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
County election commissioners in Syracuse, N.Y., have issued new proposals designed to make it harder for smaller political parties to operate in the state, but third-party officials are complaining that the rules could make it nearly impossible for new third parties to qualify.
The bills range from allowing parties who poll 1 percent in statewide ballots access to all races (Connecticut) to bills that allow candidates of unqualified parties to list their party next to their names on the general election ballot (Virginia), and one that legalizes presidential write-in balloting (Nebraska).
What would be news is if these party hacks would say, 'We nurture and welcome third parties in the state,' which happens to be the public policy of the state of New York and has been since the 1930s.

 CQPolitics.com - Both Parties’ Convention Lists Down to Four Contenders
New York City is one of the Democrats’ premier strongholds in presidential voting.
Similarly, many observers linked the Republicans’ 2004 choice of New York to the terrorist attacks on the city’s World Trade Center three years earlier — which spurred the muscular military response that has been a hallmark of Bush’s presidency — though GOP officials sought to play down a direct connection.
The parties thus are much less concerned with playing to a local audience than finding an ambient setting for what are often described as “four-day infomercials” aimed at projecting the party’s message to a national audience.

Allies of the hardcore faction firmly held control of the party from the late-1980s until the moderates seized control at the 2006 national convention and gutted the party's original platform.

 Culture Wars Seen Within Political Parties - New York Times
The question about finding a middle ground versus refusing compromise was a new one, the Pew researchers said.
Scott Keeter, director of survey research for Pew, compared it with a 1997 question that asked people whether they thought their political party should compromise on abortion in order to reach some agreement, or stick to its position even if that blocked legislative progress.
Still, this desire for compromise stretches across the political, ideological and religious spectrum, attracting majorities of over 60 percent among Democrats, Republicans and independents, among liberals, conservatives and moderates, and among evangelicals as well as Catholics and mainline Protestants.
