Perot had to know that his candidacy would put Clinton in office.

The fact that he knew how bad Clinton was and still persisted speaks volumes about the loathesome little rodent.

I don't defend Perot, never supported him, thought he was at least half crazy. I like to think it was Perot that cost the election, but I thought polling showed Clinton would win anyway. Perot voters were dissatisfied "independents" who probably would not vote republican.

But in any event, in 1996 Perot really went after Clinton, and the attacks dragged Clinton below 50%. I know the Clintonites were upset about that, it meant Clinton never received the votes of a majority of Americans. Perot went after Clinton on the corruption, which republicans should have been doing.
