The Moderate Voice on Bob Barr’s possible impact on John McCain’s campaign in November:
Barr’s hard core, small government, fiscal conservative record, combined with his unwavering pro-life positions may well attract some disenchanted conservatives, many of whom still dismissively refer to the presumptive GOP nominee as “Juan McCain” in private. Of course, his position on the Iraq war may well scare off a number of those supporters, while attracting the more Libertarian inclined Ron Paul supporters in the fall. Will he have an impact? It may be tempting to say no, at least until we remember the effect Ross Perot had on the GOP in 1992. There is also the lesson of Ralph Nader who scored roughly 100,000 votes in Florida during the 2000 election, where George W. Bush was awarded the state with a 577 vote margin of victory.
In other words, stay tuned.
The Republican party needs to go the way of the Wiggs. Lets vote for Bob Barr a real conservative that really wants to close the border, and rethink the war on drugs folly. He has had a change of thought after being drug czar. Voting for Barr will rid us of a McCain-Kennedy bill, McCain-Feingold bill, McCain-Lieberman bill and the baggage of THE KEATING FIVE( he might have gone to jail had he not have been a prisoner of war and considered a hero). GO BOB BARR
Correction; Barr will not rid us of the bills,just one of the men who co-authored them.
