I'm (mostly) Libertarian and I'll be voting for Bob Barr because I'm more in agreement with him than any other candidate, even though he's far from ideal. I think that third party voters have to get away from their idealism a little to have a chance at changing the way American politics works. Building support for a third party will require most people with leanings toward that party to accept a candidate that they're not really happy with, but who looks better than the major candidates. This requires candidates that are more moderate than Barr, McKinney, and Moore, so that a larger number of voters are attracted to them. Only after this happens can you win over the voters who refuse to vote for someone who doesn't have a chance of winning.
