Poll: Who is voting for Bob Barr?

McCain staying in the race is stealing votes from Barr.

"Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost." - John Quincy Adams

Update:

Mcpresident08 - No wonder why Paul supporters and libertarians are not voting McCain. Paul was a republican that turned a bunch of young people into republicans but the republicans are turning them away making them into socialists again - good going.

    I generally support Libertarian candidates. However Barr is hardly a Libertarian. He is a conservative with some libertarian leanings.

    Perhaps if he is polling well enough and could secure enough votes to gain ballot access in my State I may vote for him. At least I'd be getting some of what I want versus none with any of the others running.

    "Third" party candidates do not steal votes from the big two. Following that reasoning there should be only one candidate because the other would just steal votes from them. The strongest candidate gets the most votes, case closed.

    Source(s): Libertarian.

    I'll vote for Barr if I feel more like an idealist on Election Day. If I feel more like a realist on Election day, I'll vote for McCain. Barr has no real chance of winning, but it would benefit the Libertarian party to have more votes, to challenge the 2 party system in future elections.

    I know that Bob Barr will steal the Republican vote in AZ. Many voters in AZ are sick of McCain.

    I agree. I am torn between McCain and Barr. I really like Barr but I really fear a socialist like Obama. So, what do I do? Vote for the best guy or defend my country from a socialist invasion? I am truly torn.
