1. Barr-Paul '08!
Because McCain isn't struggling nearly as much as I'd like.

8. Yeah, that's a pipedream
The only way Obama wins Texas is if McCain gets confused and takes a leak on the Alamo, Ozzy Osbourne-style. Nothing else will make that one happen.

7. Barr already has a VP.
He didn't really get to pick. The Libertarian Party nominated the VP.

14. Where's the freedom in that?
Maybe Barr will overrule them because he doesn't want some party machine violating his natural rights. Parties are like gummint, dammit, and he didn't join the Libertarian Party so that gummint could tell him what to do :rofl:

12. That's what I'd like to see.
In truth, that ticket would probably also siphon off some who'd go for Obama over McCain, but I think it'd be a net positive, unlike Buchanan's "campaign" in 2000, which probably actually helped Bush ultimately.

10. From the Libertarian Party: Paul tips hat to Barr

"Though far from an official endorsement, Paul once again highlighted the positive relationship between these two former colleagues."

11. Brand New huge Ron Paul sign
I live in a quiet suburb of Illinois and yesterday I noticed a brand new, huge Ron Paul sign
near my home. It really surprised me - guess that guy has lots of people who love him. The more
the merrier.
