Two of those votes will be from my younger brothers - those would have been votes for Hillary. There is no way I could have talked those idiots into voting Trump, but Johnson wasn’t too far of a shot for them. Stealing at least two votes from Hillary sounds like a start to me - hopefully more as they talk to their little idiot friends.

Just because other people had been in longer doesn’t mean he wasn’t well established as part of business as usual. Once you’re tenure in a job is readily described in significant fractions of a century you are business as usual. I’m only bullish on Dole when I’m suffering from insomnia, they guy’s dull.

They’ve been running a lot of radio ads for him in Wisconsin.


And Florida too. Somebody is bankrolling Johnson. Big time.

Usually Dems bankroll Libertarian candidates. Maybe Soros. But I repeat myself.

Most of Johnson’s 10% supporters are GOP NeverTrumper types. I predict most all of them will start drifting back to the GOP the closer we get to Election Day and vote for Trump.

The closer we get to Election Day and the realization starts to hit them that they could well be putting Hillary in the White House by wasting their vote for a 3rd party candidate may cool off enough of their anger at Trump to vote for Trump solely to keep the Clintons from returning to the White House.

Libertarians typically only get around 1% of the vote and I expect Johnson to fall back down to the 1-2 % level come Election Day!

Unfortunately, I read the entire NYT article, which is primarily a fantasy rant aimed at Donald Trump.

UNKNOWN Gary Johnson Polling 10%?

LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

No evidence this number is real.

I would conclude you're correct.

His "so called" following is manufactured by the MSM.

They are non-existent.
