"Perot is the only reason Clinton was elected"

I think us Republicans fail to appreciate how unusual it was for one party to have the WH 3 straight terms. Except for 1981-1992, you'd have to go back to the 1950's to find a party being in the WH for 3 terms.

It's why I didn't expect Hillary to win in 2016.

Plus, there's the fact that Dim Jimmy Carter was in the WH 1 term (1977-1980) in the middle of 5 terms of Republicans (Nixon/Ford for 2 terms, Reagan for 2 terms, Bush Sr. for 1 term). So even without Perot, the odds of winning the WH again in 1992 was slim.

Also, remember that special prosecutor Walsh filed a phony indictment of Caspar Weinberger four days before the election.
