Bob Barr was right... Ron Paul scattered the 3rd party vote.

Had Ron Paul endorsed Barr, and Barr alone, he would have gotten a whole 1%. Damn, Ron Paul... you cost Barr the election. SARCASM » |

Barr was a GOP plant... prove me wrong?

Nope.
Had Paul endorsed Barr, Paul's vote totals in MT and LA would have gone down--by about 1 vote each.
And, yes, I noted it was sarcasm.
So this is what a troll smells like

...just look at the topic title and go into attack mode before they read the whole thing.
I'm a die hard Ron Paul supporter and have been since about 2 years before he announced that he'd run for president. I've never said a bad word about Ron Paul in my life and can't foresee ever doing so.
This topic was an attempt to belittle Bob Barr, not Ron Paul, for Christ's sake.
Ah well... what can ya' do? *shrugs*
Doesn't matter either way.
Doesn't matter either way. Did you notice the MSM counts always showed Obama's percent plus McCain's percent equalled one hundred percent? What third parties?

Ron Paul = smarter than some of his supporters
Ron Paul knew from the beginning that 3rd party is not how you win elections. Fine for the old protest but not a viable alternative to making real political change.

I really don't know.
We got beaten on all fronts. So now a lot of people are saying "throw the third parties overboard", because the finger-pointing of blame has begun.
Doesn't make any sense to me at all. Voter fraud probably defeated us anyway.

he won in the only arena that counts
Back in 2005 and 2006 if you had put a hundred Republicans in a room, you would MAYBE have 3 or 4 of them stand up against the majority and vehemently defend the notions of small government, civil liberties and present a sharp critique of the Neocon agenda.
I'd wager that if you put a hundred Republicans in a room today, that me or someone like me, I could rally 15 to 16 of us. And we'd show people how to stand up to the majority.
Where it counts most. Ron Paul has achieved.
If we stay active, there's no reason why our message of respect for the constitution and humble foreign and domestic policies could not grab even more Republicans.
pff
Bob Barr was wrong...on too much for Ron Paul to ever support him
As an onlooker and a
As an onlooker and a faithful follower of this election....I'm sorry but I am very skeptical of the count. It is hard to imagine by any stretch that Pelosi regained her seat with a whopping 71%. Imagine. I guess all the MSM pollsters were wrong there too. It is unimagineable that your third party candidates did so badly despite all the unreported press coverage of protests etc. etc. I just don't believe the numbers. !!!!! It doesn't make sense.
What is that one persons quote..
Live free or Diebold....that should just about cover it..The sheeple belive whatever number comes out of the media.....they are all grazing right now, and living in oblivion once again...
1% is worst total ever ?
Has the combined third party vote ever been less than this?
I do not recall such a low total in at least the last 30 something years ... nor do I recall such saturation and biased media coverage by the new consolidated corporate media
Yes it has been lower.1984 -
Yes it has been lower.1984 - .6% is the lowest in 28 years(1980-2008)
On a positive note.The total vote for third party is up from 2004.

No, but we were cheated.
Of course we never did anything about the machines. Without the machines being banned we'll never know what the real percentages are, and I believe they were quite simply hacked.
The Republicans use Diebold...the Democrats have been using paper ballot fraud, the dead voting, all sorts of nonsense.

Don't forget illegal aliens
Don't forget illegal aliens voting too(and its safe to say, that illegal aliens are likely to vote for whoever is weakest on illegal immigration and whoever is pro-amnesty, making the illegal immigration problem worse)

I Dont think so ..
I actualy think the count was about right.
The media succeeded in whipping the public up into an absolute frenzy about choosing between mud and mud.
Ron Paul didn't scatter my vote,
how about yours? Nader has consistently pulled more than the LP nominee, both in polling this time and in past elections.
New Hampshire and Ecuador
Paul? Hahah
Look at it, the Two Party vote has never had more of a majority.
Idiots who voted for McCain, scared their vote would be wasted, which eventually, Yes it was. Your vote was wasted. Everyone who voted for McCain, Yes you wasted your vote.
not to mention those who voted for obama...
your vote won't be wasted, it will likely be used for the destruction of the United States. :-)

Yeah the people who voted
Yeah the people who voted for those tyrants deserve exactly what they got comin. But I dont and neither do the rest of you.
I wonder if those people who voted for obamas character would be willing to get punched in the face for everytime he screws up. Man thier would be a whole lot less people voting for these ass clowns if that were the case.

There is no difference between an authoritarian government from the right or the left...F. A.Schaeffer
Yes, I agree with this too!
Obama has promised the sky to these people - even if he "redistributes the wealth" which is rapidly disappearing, how is he gonna live up to what these folks are now expecting?? If he doesn't, how will they then react? He will try to blame someone else, but that won't be easy to do, as he will be mostly working with a Democrat congress I believe.

Face it
Only Ron Paul could unify the third party vote, not Barr, Baldwin or Nader or McKinney could unify them.
The LP and CP should unify by establishing an "Independence Party" on the basis of Minnesota and work with the Minnesota IP, but change their platform a bit.
1 % !?!
Can't believe 99% of the Americans who care to vote are that stupid.
Sad.
Don't blame the rest of the world.We did vote for Ron Paul!
Here the world may vote third party! (Ron Paul is leading alternate)
Ron Paul was right
Well without advertising,
Well without advertising, there's no point. Third Parties have serious problems because of the laughable rules the GOP and Democrats have set up to make them jump through hoops getting ballot access.
