Now you're still voting for Romney, and you don't even have electability as a defense (note that Mr. Romney is currently losing to Roseanne Barr).



[1]Gary Johnson
[2]Rocky Anderson
[3]Andre Barnett
[4]Tom Stevens
[5]Write-in: Richard Duncan
[6]Mitt Romney
[7]Barack Obama
[8]Jill Stein
[9]Roseanne Barr
[10]Stewart Alexander
[11]Write-in: Jill Reed
[12]Tom Hoefling
[13]Virgil Goode

This isn't accurate anymore. New rankings:

[1]Gary Johnson
[2]Rocky Anderson
[3]Tom Stevens
[4]Andre Barnett
[5]Tom Hoefling
[6]Mitt Romney
[7]Jill Stein
[8]Barack Obama
[9]Stewart Alexander
[10]Roseanne Barr
[11]Virgil Goode

Eliminated write-ins, read a bit more about Stevens meeting with anti-government leaders in the RSA so he flipped with Barnett, Hoefling I researched more on and he seems like a basic paleocon, and that's objectionable but less objectionable than most others, so he jumps, Alexander is less of a joke than Barr, and there's an Obama drop cause of this.

You'd seriously put Romney ahead of Obama? Huh

The only argument I see for putting Obama ahead is "devil you know", so yes. It's a gamble.

I'm unsatisfied with Johnson's campaign (e.g. "I'm Ron Paul")

You do realize you are quoting a thread title rather than Gary Johnson?

That deserves clarification - I'm referring to the thread. I don't appreciate Johnson's attempts to appeal (I'd say "pander," but I don't think that term is quite deserved) to Ron Paul-style libertarians.

My thinking is that Johnson is simply trying to harness the energy of a large national movement that he has a good deal in common with, and by doing that also direct that energy into ideological patterns that are more in line with Johnson's views than Paul's specifically.

Stormfront would cause a Goode surge. Based on current votes, it appears to be on something like the Liberty Forums of the Daily Paul.

I'm liking this election a lot more than I'll like the real one. Johnson's in 2nd and Clinton is leading in Arkansas.

Johnson ahead by enough to win outright.
