I believe the only time where a third party really disrupted things was Ross Perot, running as an Independent(?) in '92 and took 18% of the popular vote (though, due to our electorial college system, received 0 electrorial votes).
It is thought that his 18% killed (elder) Bush's chance and led to a Clinton victory.
