    I don’t think everyone assumes this, always. Ross Perot is an old, but good example of the opposite.

    But the current state of US politics shows that Republicans are a more loyal and secure voting base then democrats. And there are several examples of the right promoting third party candidates to “spoil” for democrats. Look at the legalize marijuana party in MN, where it was run and funded by Republicans. The “no labels” party that just cropped up also has a lot of Republcan backing.
