The Libertarian laughter seems to be misplaced. Bob Barr's candidacy seems to be counting on angry Conservatives making a protest vote against McCain and the Republican Party. However, it is these Conservatives who will be the most unhappy at the mistakes and the mess that a President Obama brings this country.

I am a Conservative who believes in a smaller, more effective, less intrusive government. I do not have strong views on abortion or gay marriage, but I oppose the creation of new rights by the judiciary and so I have sided with social Conservatives on these issues. However, if angry Conservatives throw this election to Obama, then I will never give them my support on these issues again. It is possible that two or three liberal justices may retire from the Supreme Court in the next several years...if we allow a President Obama to fill these vacancies, it may be 30 years before we have another chance to get a true conservative majority on the court.

p>So, vote for Barr at your own peril. All you will do is give us a President Obama. Then don't complain to me. I will be rooting for the other side on the issues that you care about the most.
