Sam...as a Paul guy, do you think the troops will pony up for Barr?
If they do, I can see Barr getting 5+% of the vote...if they dont, he will suffer the same fate as earlier Libertarians...less than 1%
The Repubs need to figure out who they are and if they are willing to be more flexible to attract moderates who are leaving the party in droves.

I dunno he kinda treads on thin ice just like all libertarian party candidates. He's very pro drug war which is hard for libertarians to swallow, but at the same time has been a very vocal opponent of the Bush administration (patriot act and wiretaps).
If it was him vs. mccain and obama I'd be voting Barr most likely. I hate his stance on drug war though.
He's had the balls to abandon the radical Neo-con policies, that's very comendable in an age where Republicans have been Bush minions for 8 years.
