Alan, you continue to prove that you live in a fantisy world where neither logic or reality are allowed to penetrate. In the REAL WORLD, election results are determined by votes. However, your contention that "as long as a candidate is on 100% of the ballots he has an equal chance" will ONLY work if elections are on a random number generation program, or a throw of the dice.
In the real world, campaign skills, financing, and name recognition often determine the results of an election. A candidate running on the LP ticket is hamstrung by all these factors. This is why LP candidates loose. However, in loosing, they tend to draw conservative votes away from the GOP candidate. This often puts a Socialist in office.
You say you want smaller government, yet your actions help to grow government by putting Socialist in office who will ignore the Constitution. Who will place activist judges on the bench. Who will further restrict gun ownership and the right to self defence.
Al, you really need to get a grip on reality. Your vote tends to set your agenda back. Perhaps you should just say home next election? It would be a step in the right direction since you don't seem to want to take responsibility for your seeming desire to see Socialists in office. The sad thing is that you don't have the grasp on reality to see that there is a difference between a candidate that wants to hold government growth and one that wants to have government intrude on every aspect of everyone's life.

http://www.logic101.net/You need to remove this lie from your website:
Let’s keep in mind that Libertarians and Republicans are generally going in the same direction....both generally want a smaller federal government that is less intrusive.
...they [Libertarians] tend to draw conservative votes away from the GOP candidate.
People are getting sick of hearing the same lies from the GOP year after year about how they support smaller government. It's BS
Interestingly, Congressman Ron Paul doesn't seem to have a problem with losing conservative voters. He kicked his opponents ass by a 2 to 1 margin. Other Republicans should take a lesson. The difference between Ron Paul and other Republicans is Ron Paul has integrity.
This often puts a Socialist in office.
There are none more blind than those who refuse to see.
You say you want smaller government, yet your actions help to grow government by putting Socialist in office who will ignore the Constitution.
Hilarious.

I'm going to save this for posterity.
There's obviously no reason to continue this conversation with you.
