For President GHW Bush to win in 1992, he would have needed 2/3 of the Perot votes. A lot of those votes were from angry Democrats instead of angry Republicans. Even if they had split 65% Bush/35% Clinton then Clinton would have won.

However, the 2000 election was decided by the third party vote. The Naderites would have voted for Gore over Bush if they had to choose between the two and there were more than enough of them in Florida alone to push Gore over the edge.

The Naderites are, for all practical purposes, a rump party left over from the Nazi movement of the 1930s.

Without a candidate they simply don't vote.

Frankly, they'll be out this time to vote for Obama so you might take that into consideration.
