No he doesn't. He's trying to get the GOP nomination. If he says he'll run anways as an independant they his chances of getting the GOP nomination will be none and he knows it. now we all know he doesn't have a chance anyways but he must think he does because he's running. No one will vote for a guy that's going to run as an independant anyways.
He has the money to make an indpendant run and if he does no one will care that he said he wouldn't. Didn't seem to hurt Leiberman in his Senate run. His supporters will DEMAND he run. And if he cares so much about this country then he will heed the call.
Is the Libertarian party was smart they'd nominate him anyways. If he's getting 5-8% of the republican support I'm sure he's getting at least that from Independants and even some democrats. He can have the 15% minimum support needed to be part of the debates.
he won't win but maybe it will bring much needed attention to a 3rd party and perhaps some of the disgusted republicans more moderate democrats will flock to the libertarian party.
