That runt with the big ears from Texarkana had something to do with GHWB’s loss in 1992 as well.
Actually several historians now believe Bush would still have lost in ‘92 even without Perot.
It’s hard to remove an incumbent president. Bush 41 simply screwed up.
Indeed.
There’s always 3rd party candidates. They only gain ground if the incumbent isn’t paying attention to the voters.
GHW Bush was elected with a lot of votes from people who thought he would govern like Reagan. But he didn’t, and that cost him.
