No need for a throw away here. The US has been far too liberal / progressive for too long. The scale will tip back to conservative for the next 4 - 8+ years I predict. This is natural.

Also, take a look at Canada (a 3 party system). Anytime liberals go too far left, the conservatives reel them back in. Anytime conservatives go too far right, the liberals reel them back in. A third party (independent) ensures this process happens. We (the US) as a two party system will always go through either being too far left or right. This is why there needs to be a third party.
