You're more optimistic than me. A slight outsider can't even win a party nomination. Remember in 2000 when McCain and Bradley were running and gathering steam? Lots of people were excited about them at the time, and eventually the parties circled their wagons around whom they wanted and we ended up with an election of Bush-Gore, aka the two worst candidates in recent memory. The parties always win, because they write the rules of the game.
