PERFECTLY stated. Indeed. Perot voters were both GOP and DIM.

Even if Perot voters were 100% Republican (which they obviously were not, they were almost evenly split), I still don't get the arrogant attitude from the RNC that seems to believe that our votes somehow "belong" to their nominee, and that anyone else is "stealing" those votes. If the GOP stopped nominating such terrible candidates (as it has been doing since 1988), it wouldn't have to scapegoat third party "spoilers" because nobody would vote for those "spoilers."

I guess it's appropriate that the Democratic and Republican parties are pushing two candidates with a sense of entitlement to high office (Bush and Clinton) when the whole party mindsets seem to be about entitlement to votes.

Two decades ago, there were some fairly significant poertion of Democrat voters who actually thought with the head on their shoulders rather than the one which is located between the legs.

Such is no longer the case. All that matters is the D after their names and the common knowledge that Ds give away more free stuff. Herding DIM voters is like herding sheep. Herding GOP voters is like herding cats.

I disagree, the fault will not lie with Jeb being a terrible candidate, it will lie with the Republican Insider cabal who have worked to suppress all Conservative candidates, especially Ted Cruz.

And if Perot wasn’t running, a lot of those who did vote for him, wouldn’t have voted, period. It was Tweedle-Dee vs Tweedle-Dum, which hopefully won’t occur again in 2016.
