Do you recall why Perot bolted the republican party and ran on 3rd party ticket?

From NY Times:
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25— At a time when Ross Perot’s candidacy once again appeared to be transforming the Presidential contest, the Texas billionaire offered a new explanation today for his decision in July to abandon the campaign. He said he had withdrawn after hearing that President Bush’s campaign was scheming to smear his daughter with a computer-altered photograph and to disrupt her wedding.

Trump has the money to run on 3rd party in 2016. If the republicans keep attacking Trump who filed papers to run as a republican, then they can’t blame Trump to go 3rd party route. And if that happens, we will get Hillary as the first woman president in 2016, guaranteed.

Yes I do. And I recall Perot “coming out” as a democrat right after my father passed in ‘96.

You know what’s guaranteed? I’m not voting for RINOS no matter what lesser evil argument is made. That crap ceased to have meaning when I voted for McCain and then Romney, and we still got the sum of all fears. And it looks like we’re going to get more of the same. It’s over, RINOS.

We have accomplished exactly nothing since Reagan.
