Correct me if I'm wrong, but in each case when a new party took over, it wasn't one of the traditional opposition parties. It was a newer upstart party that basically had to form to beat a party that had pretty much beat itself out of power, but not badly enough to make anyone want to choose the traditional opposition. In other words if one of these new parties could get their act together, they very well could find themselves in power come say 2013. This current dynasty has run longer than any before, and the party is showing the signs of cracking.
