Given that Ralph Nader's candidacy in 2000 had a lot to do with Dubya
being elected, I can understand it. When did a third-party candidate
last win? The last one who got anywhere at all was Ross Perot and the
major effect of his candidacy was to let Bill Clinton through to defeat
Dubya's Daddy.
Montana has went blue twice in the last 70 years or so. Once was the
Goldwater fiasco and the other was Perot. It certainly wasn't love for
Clinton although truth be told GHWB wasn't a real winner either.
Personally, I couldn't stomach the man.
