I found this to be a pretty good article describing the potential for Bob Barr’s candidacy to in a “Ron Paul-like” way hurt John McCain.

ON MAY 25th a dysfunctional minor party picked a grumpy ex-Republican as its presidential candidate. This may be just another quirk in the quirky history of the Libertarian Party. But it just might be something more than this: a further sign that the Republican coalition is splintering under John McCain’s feet.
