I have a hard time seeing Nadar getting on the ballot in many states as I know Democrats will actively challenge every damn signature he submits and knock out most of them.

I participated in that effort in 2004 for Pennsylvania, and it was a bad joke. Nader saw 75% knock out rates in Philadelphia and 65%+ in Pittsburgh. His campaign experienced 50% + knock out rates throughout the state.

I saw the Nader signature collectors near my office last week, and they still don't know what they are doing. They are not asking people if they are registered to vote, they are not asking them to actually fill out the form completely (just sign and write your name is what they are doing) and I know they are getting duplicate signatures as I saw one individual sign a petition at my bus stop, and then sign the same damn petition 150 yards later near my coffee shop. The QA sucks. I severely doubt he'll be on the ballot.

Plus, Ralph Nader’s running, too

Don't forget the Imperial ex-Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney running on the Green ticket. She can get the activist vote.

The combined Nader and Mckinney vote will not exceed 0.5% nationally nor will it exceed 2% in any state. I could see Barr picking up 3-5% in several states. The former will have no impact. The latter might impact a couple of tight races, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Watch this space.

Plus, Ralph Nader’s running, too, and will likely offset Barr in any case.

Nader will be lucky to get on the ballot in most states given that he isn't running on a party line. Barr has already secured access in 30 states and will likely be on the ballot in 48.

Even if Nader gets on the ballot in significant states, the loony left already has its standard bearer, Hussein Osama, on the ballot so they are unlikely to jump to Crazy Ralph.

McCain is basically a liberal himself, so Barr offers a real alternative.

Socons are already sitting in the back of the bus behaving obediently (as they must because they are hostages to the fake abortion issue - the issue used by the oligarchy to pretend we have two parties running the country now).
