Third Way Party

== Overview ==
The Progressive Alliance, formally known as The Third Way Party, is a political party meant to represent the center. It is a big tent party which focuses its rhetoric against fascism and communism. The party was created by former members of the Liberal Democratic Alliance 
The leader of the LDA is Generic and the Chairman is Bridger. They are successors to the former leaders Fridericus Rex and Janlul22(Dick) 
== Split Off ==
The Third Way parties main reason of existence is due to the libdems. The first president of the libdems, Cyrill, was accused of many former members for "bringing the party away from its intent of creation". Consequently these members, under them Janlul, Fridericus left and founded their own party.
Tensions have quieted down between these parties mostly due to Cyrill leaving the party after losing re-elections. Cyrill later joined the TW due to Libertarians becoming too right wing.
