3 Party Election

Not that this has anything to do with healthcare other than the fact that the outcome of the election will be important in setting the direction for the US healthcare system.

But, I can’t help but wonder why we wouldn’t finally see a legitimate 3rd party candidate this year.  If Obama and Clinton can’t have a clear winner, why wouldn’t someone like Ross Perot or even Romney step in and fund one of them so that they could finally get a legitimate opportunity to be vice-president.  [And, yes…I do realize that they are both republicans.]
