How can Bob Barr be a libertarian if he is a womb controller and a bedroom nanny?

We will not vote for someone who WE feel is unworthy of the office simply to make you feel better about your piss poor nominee.
Which, ultimately will belet's get the heat turned up enough so that the froggies are forced to acknowledge that they are being boiled alive!
.about doing the best thing for the nation
It's about bettering the nation, which, now that I think about it, actually will be better for any of us still around to see it. I see this as a long term, big picture, kind of thing.
You sound like the high school nerd who has asked the cheerleader to the prom, gotten turned down and goes home to sob in his pillow, “She’ll be sorry.” I’ve got news for you. She won’t be.miboso said:...It's about bettering the nation, which, now that I think about it, actually will be better for any of us still around to see it.

And exactly what empirical evidence can you supply to support this contention? It sounds to me like you have an overactive imagination.miboso said:Regarding Perot siphoning votes, if he had not imploded and withdrawn then re-entered the race, he just might have won....
And what empirical evidence do you have to support this notion?miboso said:...Given the right candidate and the right attitude of the populous I think we can defeat the liberals (Repubs and Dems) We just haven't fallen low enough yet.
Why would I vote for a moderate liberal when I could vote for the real thing?
zero junk
The reason McCain has any chance at all is because he is a moderate.
The Ron Paul, Bob Barr type liked by so many on this forum are simply considered fringe by a much larger portion of the electorate which means that you are screwed.
A traditional conservative poster boy of the Republican party would lose so bad it would be embarassing this cycle.
None at all. This is merely my opinion, not something presented as fact. I do not need emprirical evidence for an opinion, or a "hope" for a "change". Do you have any emprirical evidence that this will not happen?empirical evidence can you supply
The Republican party in 1980 considered Ronald Reagan a "fringe" candidate. He was "too conservative" they said. The GOP power brokers said the same thing to Ronald Reagan in 1980... "You can't win... you'll split the party and the dems will win the election." Of course, Reagan, the "mean old conservative" won in a land slide in 1980 and again in 1984. How soon people forget their history.
Ok. So show me a republican in this race that had the principles of Reagan AND WAS VIABLE.
For the record, Reagan was totally anti gun...........
