Yeah right.

[aft_lizard]

I saw the first libertarian commercial of the season today in phoenix

[The South Texan]

While I agree with Libertarians much more than the with the Rats, they would be just as bad on the war on terror if not worse than the Rats.

[Tribune7]

They are grasping at straws. LOL.

The NYT would endorse Badnarik for President if they felt it would hurt Bush enough.

[jneesy]

its nice for the folks at the nyt to have dreams. what they dont see is there was nothing on the line in 2000

[MJY1288]

ROFLMAO

I saw one in Philly. The commercial was really cheesy. I agree with many Libertarian ideas (save the national party's nutty foreign policy) but this guy has no chance in hell of getting my vote in 2004.

[A Citizen Reporter]

"In an attempt to attract votes from fiscal conservatives, the Libertarian Party has launched an advertising blitz on the conservative Fox News Channel -- a campaign that is "aimed directly at Mr. Bush's Republican base," notes the Times article. "

I've seen it. It is the most amateurish, low-cost production that I've ever seen. Try again, New York Times.....

[FlipWilson]

The MSM has swung into the home stretch mode. It is more than obvious that the MSM will target Bush directly with some shocking story. What is not as obvious is the stories that are clearly designed to depress the Republican base. In my opinion, this story is a perfect example of the latter.

I never even HEARD of this guy until not long ago . . . and I'm quite a political junkie. In fact, just a few days ago I got him mixed with with that other Michael of the Constitution Party--Peroutka I think it is. In fact, if I'm not fully alert I get them mixed up--that's how much of a nonentity they are.

Losertarian delusions of grandeur. The similarities between conservatives and losertarians disappeared back during Afghanistan. They won't be taking 'conservative' votes from the president.

[Libertarian] Badnarik's impact could be 'critical'

Legalize it. That's the Libertarian campaign slogan, right?

[Ex-Dem]

I've seen Badnarik's commercial twice, came across as quite the pacifist. Next to him, Kerry almost looks like a warmonger...

[ScottM1968]

Unfortunately, we don't know what his impact will be until Election Day.

The polls only include Bush, Kerry, and Nader.

With that, libertarians would tend toward Bush and fill in his numbers.

[HereComesTheGOP]

LETS END THIS!

Former presidential candidate says too much at stake not to support 'W'

PS This can be found on millions of websites~!

[A Balrog of Morgoth]

Bush has fattened up the government far more in percentage terms than Bill Clinton did

So let's help elect a traitor who will cast away all the gains we've made against Terrorists. I know the Libertarians don't give a rat's ass about the War on Terror. (see Harry Browne's statement on how we should have dealt with Afghanistan after 9-11).

[AHerald]

I bet more voters would guess that Badnarik was some type of Eastern Euorpean pastry than a presidential candidate.
