It's ok to hold Greens blameless, but go right on ahead and blast Dems for being resentful of the two party system working against us.

You are right in your assessment of the system and how it works against us. Where I think you're wrong is your assertion that only one side is responsible for acknowledging it. It does no good to ignore the system and work as it if doesn't exist. You either change it or work with what you have.
