Bob Barr/Ron Paul Ticket?

Looks like Bob Barr is trying to make it happen:

Any real threat to the two-party system if it does? Maybe not this time, but a third party is growing.

Better not ....or there goes my vote for Ron Paul

Why don't you like Bob Barr? How far off of Ron Paul's stances is he?

It's not Barr's stances, it's his lack of character. He was a "head cheerleader" during the partisan Clinton impeachment & I will never forgive him for that! (I never voted for Clinton & agree his actions were reprehensible.... But to waste millions of my tax dollars on a ridiculous show trial for a guy lying about receiving a hummer???.....No way!!)

I'll probably vote Libertarian but I'm no fan of Barr. He is former CIA and has promoted the ridiculously expensive war on drugs in the past. His biggest sin in my mind was supporting the Unpatriot Act. I do not believe that he is a true convert, but by voting for a party that is on the ballot I insure that my vote will indeed be counted. Baldwin of the Constitutionalists party on the other hand is too far into the religious injection of federal regulation.

Bars voting record as a Republican is reprehensible in my opinion, and I really do not believe that he joined the Libertarians in order to promote real change, however write ins are not going to be counted.
