Not difficult, just read the LP's own press releases, where they proudly proclaim their goal of being spoilers.

Yes, for the reasons I explained earlier.

They aren't trying to win elections...just throw them to their liberal friends.

First, this fails to support the details of your original claim, and second, trying to be a spoiler does not automatically equate to being "friends" with either side.

Quick, now, is the Green party and/or Ralph Nader running in the election to "just throw them to their conservative friends"? Or is there perhaps a flaw in your "reasoning" about the motivations of third-parties?

The LP explains their spoiler role well enough in their own press releases. I'm sure John Kerry appreciated their support, and that of their mindless drones, very much.
