Actually Perot inflicted more damage to conservatism, than all the liberal Presidents in the second half of the 19th century. If Bush I had won, many things wouldn't have happened (terrorism in America) and our Supreme Court would have already turned to reason.

It's interesting to speculate what would have happened had Perot kept out of the race. Would we just have put Clinton and the damage he did off 4 years? Knowing what we do now, Clinton is nothing if not one of the most ambitious individuals to hit American politics in modern times.

If Bush I had shown some guts in dealing with the Middle Eastern extremists as well as Saddam, he would have been reelected. I voted for Perot in 1992 because a) Bush didn't deserve reelection; b) Clinton was a weaselly idiot; and c) my state, Maryland, was going to go Democratic anyway, so I didn't waste my vote. (Electoral votes, remember?)
Bush I suffered the bad habits of the moderate GOPers.
