We ended up with Clinton because the Republican Party ran a weak candidate that couldn't EARN enough votes.
If a party runs a strong candidate it won't matter how many 'third parties' there are.

Perot got 18.9% of the vote in the 1992 election and 8.4% in 1996. Yes, the republicans could have done better. But it would have been a whole different ball game without Perot.
