Kentucky's Libertarian Party Chairman's message for Republicans who aren't happy with Sen. John McCain as their presidential nominee is similar to the official Republican Party statement: if you vote third-party, you elect Barack Obama.
The difference is that what Republicans says as a warning, Libertarians say with hope for a brighter future.
"Please support and vote for 3rd party and independent candidates," Ken Moellman, LPK Chair, said. "Tell your "hold your nose for McCain" friends that in the long run, it'll be better if Obama wins. Once the Republican Party starts consistently
losing by 4 or 5 points, they'll adopt the platform of the 3rd party
that's getting 5% or better of the vote; because at the end of the day,
political parties are about winning.
"And besides, it took a Jimmy Carter to give us Ronald Reagan," Moellman said.
Sen. Barack Obama had the single most liberal voting record in the U.S. Senate in 2007, according to National Journal. He supports higher taxes, unprecedented federal intrusions into private business transactions, socialized medicine, and an amazing variety of extremist ideas you are just going to have to see to believe.
