In politics, the short term IS long term.

It would take them a good long while to get far enough to accomplish their common short term goals.  After that... a dissolution is sure to happen, but at that point I wonder if it matters.  You would think at least one half of the coalition would stick on as they gain most of the support of one of the parties.

Possibily even both. 

What do they have in common, though? End the drug war? End military adventurism? End corporate welfare? That's about it, and last one is pretty in doubt since the left will always throw massive amounts of taxpayer money at anything "green".

That just doesn't sound like solid ground for any kind of alliance. All they really have in common is wanting to end the current duopoly.
