Green Party: ‘Whether you elect Democrats or Republicans, you’re getting a GOP agenda’

Democrats are shifting to the right and abandoning their progressive values, a top Green Party official charged in an interview, arguing the liberal standard-bearers can no longer be "rehabilitated" and voters ought to consider a third choice.
McLarty claimed the Democratic Party has largely gone all in with the GOP on issues such as war, civil liberties and military spending, and is moving to the right on major national issues such as health care and climate change.
"Democrats are as likely to increase military spending as Republicans are now," he said, "and the Obama administration has maintained a lot of the worst policies of the Bush administration."
