Jim Ostrowski, a regular contributor to LewRockwell.com has written an article on his Political Class Dismissed blog outlining a potential path to victory for Bob Barr if the Ron Paul faithful are moved to supporting Barr. He is swift to point out that it is not a prediction, but just a potential scenario.
McCain is the weakest Republican nominee since Alf Landon.
The Democrats could name Hillary and walk into the White House but they’ve apparently decided to shoot themselves in the foot and name a complete unknown, extreme liberal as their nominee. No one really knows where the Obama thing will go. He has gotten a free ride from the media and therefore the normal vetting process simply has not occurred. His most recent gaffe on controlling our diets could alone sink him.
Nader will get some votes from Obama as well, particularly if Obama fades.
With five candidates in the race, the magic number for winning the popular vote drops to about 32%.
First, Barr needs to get the endorsement of Ron Paul and try to get the Revolution behind him.
