I’m convinced Republicans have been wanting to fund secret third party campaigns since 1992, when H Ross Perot waged the most successful independant campaign in recent memory. He didn’t get any electoral votes, but got 20% of the popular vote. Clinton won his first term with only 43% of the vote. Republicans convinced themselves that Perot stole more votes from Bush than Clinton, and that if Perot didn’t run, Bush would probably have won.
Then you have much more faith in the Republicans ability to be smart, than I do. I don’t think they have anything to do with it. Not everything is some grand conspiracy.

For the record tho, I LOVED Ross Perot!!
