For my own part, I am not convicned that a two party system is really that much of a problem. With the mulit-party systems, there's often a problem
of having to form coalition governments, and a lot of internal parliamentary politics, whereas in the two party system, the 'government' doesn't
collapse because a small group defects.
In the US, for example, if teh christian conversavtives don't want to play nice, it doesn't matter, because they are subsumed in the Republican
party and there is no coallition government. They can still have influence, but they can't have these 'no-confidence' measures and all the
politicing.
