Dont forget the third party tools that threw away their protest votes, thus assisting Obama. Oh yeah, you were one of them.Me, too! Don't forget me!
Now, do you really believe that my vote for Barr in Texas helped Obama? You really don't understand the electoral college?
If you gave all the 3rd party votes to McCain (even the Green Party votes — hey, why not?) he still would have lost exactly the same. McCain lost the election the day that he said that the economy was strong, and the banks began to crash just hours later. The Republican party spent a year denying that we were in recession, when, in fact, we were. You can fool all the people some of the time and 2008 wasn't one of those times.
You missed the point, not hard since you overlooked Barr's fine qualities above, by throwing your vote away on a losing pony, or in your case a losing nutcase pony.
You did nothing to stop Obama even though McCain still would not have garnished enough votes with all the third party and green voters. You voted for someone you knew COULD NOT WIN, thus you were okay with having Obama. McCain had a chance of winning. Barr had none.
