Talk:Socialist Party of the United States (Southern Victory)

In 1918 they came seventeen votes short of controlling the House outright, so they formed the second multi-party governing coalition in that body's history. Foolish of the Democrats not to try to woo the Republicans themselves. Whether they had an absolute majority in the Senate I don't know, and I'm guessing they hit the magical 51% mark in future elections.

The bit about "The Party's greatest mistake was not setting up a New Deal" is quite inappropriate to the article: We're supposed to be objective, we don't know enough about the economic crisis to say whether it needed a command/control economy or a free market one to provide the correction, and if you start using anachronistic terms like New Deal in an article about a timeline that doesn't have one, you're on a par with "Jake Featherston is the Hitler of TL-191."
