For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: will Bob Barr be 2008's Ross Perot or Ralph Nader:
Former Rep. Bob Barr, the newly-selected Libertarian presidential nominee, rejected suggestions Monday that he could spoil his former party's chances of holding onto the White House. "There are two folks that are out to spoil the race here — it's Senator Obama and Senator McCain. They're setting out, I think, to spoil our chances," he told CNN's "American Morning." (video available here).
What are your thoughts about this candidacy? Are you going to vote for him? What percentage of the votes he receives would likely have gone to McCain? Might this tip the election in Obama's favor?
