If the Republicans don't nominate a "winner" I will probably vote for the third party candidate again.

>>But the vote was wasted anyway, and I would at least have had the satisfaction of protesting against the current system.

I assume that you mean Perot. Bush was a cypher but since the result of the protest was Clinton, history says that you and yours not only confirmed the current system, you actually made it far worse. Perot wanted Clinton and we got him.

>>I read something recently that predicted real gains and conceivably a win for a third party next time.

Put out by a member of Gore2000, no doubt knowing that Dems can't get 50% in a two man race. A third party has absolutely no chance barring a holocaust.
