Sorry- can't vote Libertarian- just not realistic

Then you will get just what you have now. A big government (liberal? fascist?) Republican who will lead us into more dangerous wars in his second term. How is that different than a big government (liberal? socialist?)Democrat? Both are totally unacceptable. The number of people who realize that will increase as we get closer to November 2004 and, this time, the Libertarian really has a chance-so long as you vote for your long term best interests and forget the "lesser of two evil" dead end policy.

Because we will get into more wars regardless of who wins. We would be in Iraq today if Gore had won. But we would also have higher taxes and even more Big government than under Bush. If a Democrat wins in 2004 we are not going to pull out of Iraq and it won't stop the next war. It will just be a war that the liberal press likes and doesn't criticize like Kosovo. It is a "lessor" of two evils. A third party vote is totally wasted until one of the two major parties is totally discredited by a major cataclysm.
