 Progressive Party (United States) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Progressive Party disbanded in 1955, as the Cold War began to dominate the political spectrum in the United States, and any party which had not taken a stridently anti-Communist position was deemed to be unviable.
Retorting that he was "fit as a bull moose" (giving the party a nickname), Roosevelt ran on the Progressive Party ticket in the 1912 Presidential election, with California Governor Hiram Johnson as his vice-presidential running mate.
The party, which in reality consisted of little more than Roosevelt's presidential campaign, soon folded and Roosevelt returned to the Republican Party after the Republicans nominated the more progressively-minded Charles Evans Hughes for president in 1916.
