This is just Operation Chaos in reverse. We giggle when Ralph Nader and Dennis Kucinich peel off votes from the left flank of the Democrats. We encourage Cindy Sheehan to bedevil the flank of Nancy Pelosi.
Now Barr, who I respect, will suck votes from McCain who I could care less about. Still there is no way McCain can win if his right flank deflects. So a POX on Barr and his grandstanding.
McCain has no right flank.

It’s not Barr’s fault that the GOP nominee can’t win the support of conservatives. You can’t blame conservatives for voting for the candidate of their choice. If conservatives fall in line behind McCain, we’ll become to the GOP what blacks are to the Democrats.
The silver lining could be this could force McCain to pick a guy like Haley Barbour as his VP or some other Conservative who resides outside of Washington.
If Barr wins the Libertarian nomination, which, given who he is would surprise me, I would reckon that he'll siphon more votes from the Dims by virtue of capturing the Paulista voters, most of whom I believe are closet lefties, as evidenced by their tactics. Barr is running around saying that we are an "occupying force" in Iraq. This is going to appeal to the Paulistas who would probably otherwise vote for Obama. With that said, McCain is doing a very fine job of chasing Conservatives away without any help from Bob Barr......
“So a POX on Barr and his grandstanding.”
What? A pox on a guy for having conservative(98 ACU rating) principles that he is not willing to compromise for the RINOs who have taken control of the GOP? Maybe a POX on the GOP for abandoning us.
And this proves we have an equal number of stupid/brainless wonders on our side too.
No chance to win, huh? mmmm How about I learn more about Barr, if I like him, push him a lot and come November, see if he has a snowball’s chance. I’ll have time to hold my nose for McPain if necessary.
