Ron Paul is the only candidate that ran for either of the "Big Two" that I would have voted for had he made it through primaries.

 

[mudpuppy]

Ron Paul is ostensibly a Republican, but he ran for Prez as Libertarian in 1988.

 

[Enginnneeer]

The EB polls have McCain as a clear winner, is it over? McCain wins the White House?

I don't know, not if this is what is being told to B.O. supporters:

^^ Wow. I wasn't aware that I won't have to pay the mortgage anymore. I can just sit here, spam, and wait for my check from Uncle Sam to support my right to own a house.

It's a secret. . . took me forever to figure it out. I ended up clicking on something that looked like a pencil and it popped up. Not sure if I could do it again if I wanted to.

I figured I better first say that I am not questioning your choices, but it is sort of weird from my experience. Almost every libertarian I know is a disaffected Republican who is moderate on social issues. I know a lot of more liberal people who tell me they are libertarian, primarily because they are pro-choice, pro-legalization etc. But then when I point out that most libertarians don't really believe in income taxes at all, or public education or anti-discrimination laws (let alone hate crime laws) they seem surprised.

That's why this is a meaningless internet survey. It treats all issues equally, as if people don't have priroities of what their issues are. Your support of Bill Richardson and Rudy Giuliani is almost equal. You also have substantive agreement over 50% with most of the Republicans. Maybe you agree with Paul on Iraq and foreign policy. If you want out of Iraq, there were about three questions just on that. Ron Paul and Barack Obama disagree on almost everything except that. And Ron Paul is pro-life, which is not a typical libertarian position. Plus, there was something on there about legalizing drugs, actually two related questions I think. Probably Paul is the only one for that.

 

[engineergurl]

Ironically, the poll said that I was closest to Giuliani and Thompson... who were my number one and two choices.

And I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords. I'd like to remind them that as a trusted TV personality, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves.

HAIL LORD XENU!

 

[snickerd3]

Now that Obama has won, our lovely Gov. Blagovich gets to pick someone to take Obamas place int the senate....with as oblivous and power hungery as Gov is, he'd probably appoint himself to the vacant position...may god have mercy on us all.

 

[Flyer_PE]

^^ With a 13% approval rating, at least 1 in 10 people will be happy with whatever his choice may be.

 

[snickerd3]

My cousin is a secret service agent at the White House. It will be interesting to see what he thinks come Easter time when he comes home for a visit. The Bushes are well respected by the SS folks, From what he heard (before he started)the Clintons were not.

 

[Dleg]

Well, who want's to hang around in a family where the wife knows full well that the husband is getting hummers under the desk in the same house? That's gotta be tense. Obama seems relatively boring compared to that, but I'm sure the SS will have their hands full with all the whackos who want to "get him."

 

[DVINNY]

True.

I bet old Bill kept it interesting though.

 

[DVINNY]

Old Bill prolly loved this
