Which politician is a bigger loser who lost at life?

[Ronnie]

Very tough call, but I have to go with Bob Barr, on the grounds that he is running a national campaign rather than a congressional one.

[Person Man]

At least Bob Barr has is own small cult. Jim Gilmour? lol.

[SPC]

Bob Barr, given that he is so insecure that he feels the need to destroy a third-party and do everything possible to maintain his irrelevence. At least Jim Gilmore is up against an uber-popular opponent.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Remember, Gilmore did run for President.  Then again, maybe you don't.  Plus, Bob Barr didn't nearly destroy an entire State; and at least Barr didn't alter the way his Party chose a nominee, and then nearly lose in that fashion.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Gilmore's a former Governor who is now stuck running as a sacrificial lamb. His name should become a synonym for failure.

Sacrificial lamb?  Hm, never had that kind.  Can you describe to me the taste?

[Mint]

Bob Barr, if only because of the massive hypocrisy.

     Rather gamey for my tastes, though I know many people who swear by it.

[Workers' Friend]

I already voted Barr on process of elimination, but both to be honest.

[Dr. Cynic]

Bob Barr is a huge hypocrite, and the Libertarian Party is becoming more and more of a joke with each nominee. What is it with them?... Ed Clark's the only one to come even close to a good night.

Gillmore is running against one of that state's most popular political figures. No one would have a chance against Warner.

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

Bob Barr, because he's the Libertarian who didn't get Ron Paul's endorsement.

Wait, why do libertarians hate Bob Barr all of a sudden?  How he is a massive hypocrite?  What has he done?  Fill me in.

I believe he was all for the War on Drugs until he switched parties, or something like that.

This year I would vote for a generic Libertarian nominee in a heartbeat.  As is, I'm pretty much undecided between McCain and Barr.  Who is the "least worst" candidate?

C'mon, man.  At least McCain was at least a semi-influential senator, who was respected.  You just can't compare him to Barr.

-Support for the War on Drugs
-Support for intervention in Columbia
-Supported the Fed's bailout of Freddie and Fannie
-Praised George W. Bush's leadership at 9/11
-Says he doubts man-made global warming, and then praised Al Gore for his work on climate change
-Snubbed Ron Paul repeatedly during his campaign

It's kind of suspicious that Barr suddenly changes all of his positions just to win the nomination.  I mean, at least Mary Ruwart could have brought some respect into the Libertarian Party.
