Third party candidates have been around for a long, long time. Gary Johnson will likely take more votes from Drumpf than Jill Stein will take from HRC. Neither will have the impact former third party candidates like Wallace and Perot had. The vehement anger against both has been the weirdest part of this race for me.

Hillary is going to win book it.
