WT: Barr Chiseling Into McCain Voter Base
Edited on Fri Jun-06-08 03:53 PM by Mark E. Smith
From the article:

Bob Barr's Libertarian presidential campaign is poised to play a serious role in this year's elections, with early polls showing him taking away enough votes from Sen. John McCain to give Democrats a chance to win states that should be safely Republican.

Polls in Georgia and North Carolina over the last two weeks show Mr. Barr winning 8 percent and 6 percent respectively of the presidential vote, and in both cases helping keep likely Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama within striking distance of Mr. McCain in these states - which, taken together, account for more electoral votes than Florida, Pennsylvania or Ohio.

Good news comes from the unlikeliest places sometimes.



"Bob Barr with your nose so bright,
punk McCain election night."

8. I have seen some Ron Paul bumper stickers (none for McCain) and it makes me think
that there could be some write-in votes by people who usually vote R.

Signs everywhere. Even saw a Giuliani sticker the other day. But not. A. Single. McCain sign or sticker.

9. More like "scooping"
"Barr Chiseling Into McCain Voter Base"

Considering how flimsy and reluctant support is for John McCain, Barr wouldn't need a chisel to make a dent in it. A spork would work just as well.

Go Barr!!!
