It has long been my opinion that the Constitution party is our best “third party” option.

Really? Chuck Baldwin only got 199K votes out of 130+ million cast in '08. The Libertarians more than doubled that with 524K. If anything, the Libertarians would be considered the more viable of the alternate options, if you can call half a million votes viable.

I just watched Goodes speech at their Convention this weekend. There was a wall sconce and HVAC thermostat behind him like they were holding it in a Ramada Inn conference room. I don't think the party is as big as you think.

There is strong evidence that Ralph Nader cost Al Gore the 2000 election.
Every new “conservative” candidate poses a serious threat to GOP Presidential hopes. That is mainly because conservatives are looking for someplace, anyplace, to go. If Romney is the GOP candidate, the GOP will lose. It astonishes me that the GOP establishment elite doesn’t get that. ...Or do they?
