Yep. When Perot entered the fray, it forced the GOP to go far right, and we got 8 years of Clinton.

Ironically,Perot himself did not run a conservative campaign.Do you recall his statement giving a defacto endorsement to the Democrats when he dropped out the first time?

Perot is just like any 3rd party candidate. He looks for the anger and then exploits it. They have no intention of wining they just want to play power politics and in most cases, Perot excluded, make a comfortable living doing it.
