That is the 2nd highest vote total in LP history (37 years).

As I reported in my write-up of the Bob Barr election night party, VP candidate Wayne Allyn Root promised the crowd that he'd be back in 2012: "Maybe as your president-elect!"

A little while ago I chatted with erstwhile Libertarian vice presidential candidate Wayne Allyn Root today, to get a grapple on where the LP is going after 2008. Root didn't figure much into Brian Doherty's excellent rundown of the LP campaign , so I wanted to get his perspective. "I just wrapped up another little political discussion," said Root.

I don't have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obama...

It can’t be because she is an African American, can it? It can’t be because she is a woman, can it? Was it her message? Was it her lack of money? However, I am not depressed by the outcome.
