Which states will Bob Barr do most damage to Johnny Boy?

[aaroh]

besides georgia. I'm thinking maybe a 527 group should be set up to help bob barr in key swing states where he can do major damage to John McCain. Its easier to sell barr to conservatives than selling sand to the arabs ....or ice to the eskimos...you get my drift.

1. Alaska has a strong Libertarian streak

and McCain is not popular here. I would guess that Barr will pick up some votes here if he's on the ballot.

2. Which states grow the most pot? n/t

[aaroh]

5. ralph nader attracts a strong group of drug decriminalization supporters

[yardwork]

9. North Carolina is one. Barr might give NC to Obama this year!

I definitely think that the Libertarians in the western mountains and the pot growers in the Piedmont will be attracted to Barr.

16. I live in NC and live and breathe politics and have NEVER heard one person mention Barr

honest to God, not one. I don't think he'll make a splash here although I wish he would.

[yardwork]

23. Yeah, me too. I guess it's wishful thinking on my part.

[Seen the light]

26. Um...do you live in the Charlotte area? He's a WBT star

I agree with whoever said that NC was right there behind GA in terms of potential Barr potency.

14. Lots of pot is grown in Alaska. n/t

[grantcart]

3. North Carolina and possibly AZ where there is a conservative group of

Republicans that are angry about a dust up with McCain earlier in the year.

[billyoc]

4. Georgia(Barr's home state), and the western red states, I would think.

6. NC

[bluestateguy]

7. I'll say Alaska too

And if you look at that state's election history, it regularly gives a high percentage of its votes to third party candidates.

17. With our three little electoral votes

I think people up here figure they may as well vote their consciences, especially since it's been so reliably Republican in the past.

[scheming daemons]

8. New Hampshire maybe? They have a libertarian bent there...

[MattNC]

10. None of them n/t

[rasputin1952]

11. Confusion and Reality?

:evilgrin:

[WorseBeforeBetter]

12. North Carolina (n/t)

[deadmessengers]

13. He's going to have an impact here in Georgia.

On my commute, I've been seeing Barr bumperstickers outnumbering McCain's by about 2 to 1.

[bluestateguy]

20. I'm concerned that he is not well known outside of the Atlanta metro area

Am I wrong?

[PM7nj]

15. None. nt

[kentuck]

18. Besides GA, MT, and AK....?

Maybe MN, NH, and MI?

[TahitiNut]

19. Arizona

:evilgrin:

[grantcart]

24. can I marry you?

You and I maybe the only ones that notice that there is a vocal conservative minority in Arizona that absolutely despises McCain.

Zogby now showing Barr at 7% in Arizona

[The Liberal Thinker]

21. The Pacific northwest, also Montana and Nevada, where Ron Paul had some serious turnout.

[davidpdx]

22. I think mostly in the South, especially states neighboring

Georgia. You never know, he could have an impact in Florida as well. It's too early to say for sure.

[grantcart]

25. Zogby is showing 5-8% for Barr in many states

27. Barr

My feeling Is Barr will be a factor In Both the South,and The West plus Alaska.Barr appeals to
relgious conservertes who don't trust Mccain on Abortion and Gays,and Repulicans who are Libertians
who vote most of the time as Republicans but don't Like Bush's shredding of civil rights and who are not neocons but don't like Democrats.

28. Georgia
