Looks like it’s between Barr and Chuck Baldwin...the only real Republicans in the race.

If the Libertarian Party ever decided to get rid of its pro-drug, open border, weak national defense, and pro-abortion platforms, then it would become a significant force in American politics overnight. Otherwise, it'll never be more than a Third Party.
Regardless, I'll vote for Barr before I vote for McCain.

I guess his gig with the ACLU wasn’t paying enough.....

Here we go! Now we have to choose. A true conservative or a RINO who might win. I need a drink, or three.

“...the strongest ticket in the history of the Libertarian Party”
Isn’t that like being the tallest midget?

Hey Dinsdale, want some salt for that crow you are eating?
Here's last week's thread, in case you've forgotten:
Will the Libertarians Spoil McCain's Chances?
Thursday, May 22, 2008 1:57:54 PM · 50 of 71
Dinsdale to Jack Black
Jack Black: I believe it is Barr, not Paul, who is the odds-on favorite to win the Libertarian nomination.
Dinsdale: I believe it is James Watt, not Nader, who is the odds-on favorite to win the Green party nomination.
Equally likely. Barr is no libertarian and never will be.
----------
Can't win 'em all. Better luck next time, old chap!
To: WackySam
It will probably Barr/Root on the Libertarian side and Baldwin/Castle on the Constitution Party.
At least a choice to make.

The social liberaltarians are jumping with joy at the prospect of undercutting McCain just enough to put Obama or Hillary in there. The sort of people Obama or Hillary will appoint to the supreme court will suit these abortionist hippies to a tee.
I’ve got about as much use for a liberaltarian as a Democrat.

Ross Perot sent his regrets, said he was too busy dealing with his nutty aunt in the attic, and Pat Buchanan said he wouldn't even consider it unless he was allowed to give his acceptance speech in the original German.

To: river rat
I guess his gig with the ACLU wasn’t paying enough..... He helped raised a ton money for them. They are a traitorous organization which gives lip service to Libertarian concerns (where is the ACLU amicus brief on the D.C. gun ban?) in order to push forward their Marxist agenda. Barr was a useful idiot for them. I am not going to be a useful idiot and vote for Barr.

I’ve got about as much use for a liberaltarian as a Democrat.That makes two of us which is zero, zip, nada.
First Barr went to the ACLU which is as liberal as you can get and now the Libertarian Party the home of the open borders. And yet, some of here who "claim" to be conservative are going to vote for him? Give me a break!

Exactly. These people are going to give Obama the White House.
A vote for a 3rd party canidate is a vote for Obama. Plain and simple.
God help us all.
