Is the order of things shifting?

Now I am not saying as of the current moment, but over the next few year I would not be surprised if there was a realignment of the political parties.
What got me thinking about that was this: http://www.cnbc.com/id/48710255.
If all the middle of the road Democrats shift to the GOP, and the neoconservative, which are nothing but liberals in conservative clothing, control the GOP, were doe that place real conservatives? Does that push them to the Libertarian Party and the Constitution Party? Look at the defections already. They have Roger Stone and Gary Johnson. And on the Constitution side, look at Virgel Goode. Maybe I am thinking too much. And then for the civil liberty crowd of the Democratic party, they may swing towards the Green Party. Like I said, I don't think it will be over night, but if the Democratic Party can't tap the roots of JFK and Bill Clinton (being middle of the road reformers), I think you could see a splintering of the parties. In one poll I saw, 10% of the American people said they would vote for a third candidate. And if some of Ron Paul's previous supports support Gary Johnson , even with a small amount of them, could help for him to make a real impact on the race.
Anyways, just my 2 cents. Honestly I am not worrying about the outcome, although I wish people would do the right thing and vote both major parties out. Worse comes to worse I may have to move to Eastern Europe sooner than I thought.
