At one point I was a registered Libertarian. I think Barr will serve as a good option for those who don't support the use of our military to "police" the world, social liberals and fiscal conservatives, but the party will lack credibility even with Barr. The primary reason I am not a Libertarian today is because of the party's position on how our military should be used, I just don't think their position is practical.
Barr will not hurt McCain. I think those who support Barr will generally be a small percentage of well informed voters with strong views on either the war, fiscal policy, or government interference with individual freedoms. Two of those three issues involve people who have very liberal views, ranging from no military presence outside our boarders to legalization of marijuana.
