Someone tried to nominate Ron Paul, though the measure narrowly failed. Johnson, Wrights, and two other guys whom I have never heard of.

Bill Still and RJ Harris?

Still is an economist from Virginia and Harris is a military vet from Oklahoma who ran for Congress last year and failed miserably. He was endorsed by Ron Paul.

Nah Harris dropped out, its Carl Pereson and some other guy. Its on CSPAN right now.

Pereson's got the right idea, but he is as charismatic as a blade of grass.

The candidate who has just taken the stage is wearing a powdered wig.

Which is why he's nuts.

I love how these people think Gary Johnson somehow stands a chance of getting more than 3% of the vote.

Believe me, I wish he could win, but he can't.

That was the phoniest speech I've ever heard in my entire life.

Why are you guys hating on Johnson? I were a registered Libertarian, I would be thinking that these are the most exciting times since Christ was born in Bethleham! I am rooting for Johnson, though Wrights and Burns are good guys too.

He's trying to excite a base that's been as stagnant as a statue since the 1970's. He thinks he can win, but he can't.

Was that a transvestite? In the white dress & wig?

Jim Libertarian Burns, who legally changed his middle name to Libertarian. I kid you not.

No wonder I ditched this party.

I lean towards the Constitution Party, but what I really want is a Paulite Party or something of that nature. That was a tranny.

A Paulite Party wouldn't get more than a few thousand members, max. Was he really a tranny?

Texas is a big win for Wrights.  And who is this creep from Utah?

I thought they said Johnson won Texas 24-3

Noooo Wrights won.


Ron Paul with a delegate vote lol

I'm a bit surprised both of Governor Johnson's parents are still alive. Good for them, and him.

I'll probably end up voting for him, unless Americans Elect somehow gets a good ticket together.

Sad

lol the LNC Chair just implied that Obama's rallies today were planned to coincide with the Libertarian convention.

I laughed at that too.

New Mexico will probably be his best state. Will he crack 5%?

If he's lucky.
