Two parties. (Dems = libs)

He may have been referring to "libertarians" and not "liberals", but I'm not sure it really affects the GP post's point.

I think he means libertarians, maybe?

I do yes :)

While they're the third largest party, they are by no means major. That said, libertarians of various stripes are represented in both parties.

Our democratic system is flawed and invariably leads to just two major parties.
