Can someone remind me what 'thought terminating cliche' means again?

I don't think you can really get rid of party line voting. Most voters don't want to or cannot spend much time researching politicians and mostly vote based on party preference. Elected representatives therefore need the support of their party for reelection, giving the party leverage.
I'm all in favour of having viable third parties. Living in a country with viable third parties though, I can tell you that it won't fix all problems. Just look at last weeks EU parliament elections.
