This article is on the front page of the Los Altos Town Crier, circulation 16,500. I don't regret being realistic about my campaign's prospects, but I wish the...
In order to be a successful political party we need a huge tent...one which attracts even those who agree with us only some of the time. That should not be a...
With the election over and high taxes on the horizon, along with a growing scism in the GOP, now is the perfect opening for a big ten Libertarian party. I was...
perhaps we'll even get a Libertarian candidate next time wrote: From: Brandon Sharitt <bsharitt@...> Subject: [LibertarianReformCaucus] Time to pickup...
Well, the LRC-bashing knuckleheads around the 'net are already predicting the demise of the LRC...based on one frickin' election! They fail to realize that in...
In looking at congressional run in 2010, I have had my doubts about sticking with the LP, intead running as an independent or a new third party, but for now...
You guys overcame the Radicals and look what happened . Â where are all the promises you guys made at Nat Con. Â 5% , historic campaign , in the debates etc ...
Like I hinted at in my last reply, it will take more than one election cycle to overcome the baggage wrought by the radical idiocy of the past 30+ years. I'm...
I consider myself more radical than not but I voted for Barr and spent a sizable amount on donations, literature, fliers, signs, entered into parades and...
And so I must ask again: where the hell has the radical agenda gotten the party since it's inception? Point fingers all you like, it hasn't been the LRC...
Actually, Debra, I'm disappointed with the vote totals, too. I suspect most Reformers are, but I can't speak for others. But who among us "promised" "5%"...
I should clarify , not exactly people in this group , just Reformers in general and that what was what was heard leading up to and at Nat Con , the whole...
While I consider myself to be a on the reform side, Barr wasn't my first pick either(I didn't really care for any of them), too Republican. While I'm all for a...

Debra,  You failed to mention you were the only third party or independent candidate. Barr had to share the Nevada ballot with Nader, McKinney and Baldwin...
thanks for clarifying, debra. As a straddler between the Radicals and Reformers, you may be buying the (implicit) Radical line that anyone who is not a...
You've got to be kidding Brian , you never heard in Denver people saying Barr would an historic LP campaign and all the other bullshit promises leading up to...
Barr also did this party a HUGE favor -- proving to voters we are sensible, rational people and not 9/11 conspiracy nuts who refuse to get drivers licenses. Â ...

That was the only bright point I saw in the Barr campaign, it made the LP looks bit more legitimate in the eyes of the media, rather than a bunch of nutjobs. ...
Barr performed abysmally in North Carolina. Exactly what he deserved. Mike Munger, the Libertarian candidate for governor got three times as many votes. That...
I heard a few young delegates mention hopes of 5%, but no one in the leadership. All of the leadership predictions I heard were 0.5-2%. The reality is the...

Donny, If you're right that LOTS of people were convinced to vote for Barr because they saw him as "pragmatic, sensible, rational and safe," then it appears...
Morgan, Unless I'm misunderstanding the object of your criticism, the "fantasy based economic policy" to which you refer is directly based on the "basic...
