The Libertarians nominated a great candidate. The Libertarian candidate is far more articulate, intelligent, cultured, and has more character than any other candidate running, especially the likes of Nader.

Badnarik will also be on the ballot in nearly every state. I attended a fund raising dinner last night and donated to his campaign. And not one cent of that money was wasted. I only wish I had more to give.

More like the evil you know is more evil than any before it, vs. the evil you have seen a hundred times before.

There is no way that Mr. Middle of the Road Kerry could be worse than Bush by any metric.

I understand the Pennsylvania ballot drive is in a shambles. They have two weeks. Good luck

You mean the Libertarians are going to have to beat the bushes to beat the Bush.

Come on, Bruce! EVERYONE knows that the Libertarians are going to win here. And if you don't believe that, then you're a fucking idiot!

Badnarik is pulling 1.5%-2% in many of the swing states right now. Chances are he'll cost Bush the election.

Badnarik will be on the ballot in almost every state, Nader will only be in a few. Also Badnarik has the third largest political party behind him (larger than all other third parties combined), and some money. I donated at a fund raiser the other day and chatted with him for awhile. We are on exactly the same page as far as the Constitution goes. It's rare to find someone who knows and respects the Constitution as well as I do.

Badnarik will get far more votes than Nader.

I hope you're right, but Nader is polling at 4-5%. His only disadvantage is his difficuly getting on ballots, but the Republicans are doing what they can to fix that.

I'll do $100 even money on Nader's total being higher than Bedheadnik's.
