AMERICAblog: Bob Barr's independent run for prez is meant as challenge to McCain

  • Rob Mule · 1 year ago
    he was very ambitious and his ambitions were his first priority

    Says Barr's first wife and witness to the abortion the couple had performed during economic hard-times.

    Shades of the Pentagon TV head scandal!!! How will Townsend minimize it???
    From DCRTV.com:

    Frances Fragos Townsend, who recently stepped down as President George W. Bush's chief anti-terrorism and homeland security adviser, will join CNN as an on-air contributor providing analysis and insight on national security issues.

    wow...that washington post article on Barr... i think Senator McMaverickiness could be in for quite a licking...
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    oooooh...

    I REALLY hope they invite bob barr to debates....

    maybe even just one or two with ONLY mccain and barr.

    they'd have to check the studio for lethal weapons... mccain would eventually look for something to bludgeon barr with.

    I'd give it ten minutes before mccain called bar a "Fu**ing *&$*$!!*@@#$&*!!!"

    maybe he'd have an aneurism, one could only hope. repukes need to see "The Real McCain"

    We gotta figure out some ways to help this guy in the fall.

    The Repubs have been keeping Nader afloat for years.
  • hopelesspedant · 1 year ago
    The idea that Barr is going to be in the debates is at this point silly.
    He will need to be consistently polling around 10% or more for this to be remotely possible.
    Nader was in the 3-5% range in 2000 and was not considered anywhere near where he needed to be,

    OK, I'm more naive to all of this than most of you, but I worry about the number of people - however small - who normally would never vote for a Democrat but were leaning that way mainly to take a stand against the war. Having Barr as an alternative concievably pulls votes away from Obama. I hope the number Barr would pull away from McCain would be larger, to more than balance it out.

    Even more fun if he pick Ron Paul as VP!
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    He seems pretty quotable.

    That's good.

    Half the reason the Libertarian candidates never get attention is because they're dry as dust.

    Barr is a born-agin, Bible-believin' Christian. . . . James Carville says whatever it is that his wife tells him to say.
