I sometimes wonder that myself. Even if Perot hadn't have won, what if the Reform party had stuck together, raised money and continued to grow. They had some success getting local and state reps elected and they also got Jesse Ventura elected governor, but then they started to splinter and fall apart.
What if 1/3rd of the house and senate were reform party members? then no party could run roughshot over it and they would all have to get along and work together.
