. My thought is that if he were to run on a third party ticket, he’d be a spoiler for our side just as Perot helped Clinton get elected.

Big difference. Perot did not blame America for every problem in the world. He did not demand that under aged girls be allowed to cross state lines in order to get abortions when they are illegal in the state they live. Perot did not want to force the military to accept gays. Perot was not in favor of legalizing drugs.
These are all things the surrender monkey, and most democrats are in favor of. No real Republican could ever vote for someone who thinks killing OBL was bad, but they are things that many liberals who otherwise would vote for the king may like. and instead vote for the anti-American.

I hear ya. And I voted for Perot, I confess :-)

Earlier on Bret Baier, the panel was asked about RP and his folks’ latest sqawking about him not getting fair or equal coverage by the media. Krauthammer said that if RP continues to feel slighted, he may very well switch and run as an Independent, which CK said could do significant damage to the Republicans and help BHO.

That’s always been my theory as well. Everyone’s right on here, that he wouldn’t run on the Libertarian ticket again as it’s not taken seriously. BUT it’s quite possible he could go Independent, which IS viewed as viable. A surprising number in Congress are Independents.

I just hope he’ll either stay where he is, or drop out (wishful thinking, I know). What is he trying to prove, anyway, other than helping The WAN?
