Well, I don't think the Henry Ross Perot phenomenon surfaced until March of 1992, am I not correct? Farah may be on to something. The new immigration plan will hurt Bush II among conservatives too.

Teddy.... this article fits into your naysaying perfectly, doesn't it? Who is going to step forward, with the cash and in what party? Ventura? Constitution party with less than 100,000 votes last time isn't going to be a player..... Reform party was drug to the mud wallow by your friend Buchanan..... The Libertarians, the Greens..... just who is going to be?

Farah makes some interesting points, but I don't think Ventura is the guy.

If we take into consideration the actual percentage of regestered voters who showed up last time. What was it 30-35%?

Add in the huge amount of money that will be spent by the left to "motivate" otherwise non voters.

What if a really high profile ultra rich guy showed up as an independent, like Donald Trump, or Bill Gates or someone else........

A guy like that could get a bunch of independent minded non-voters off their butts for once...........

>>The possibility of a major third-party candidate who could draw more votes away from Bush than from the Democratic nominee. <<

A very strong possibility IMHO. With the recent immigration speech, all bets are off.
