How Much Help Can Barr Count On From The Revolution?
By Kleinheider Posted on May 26, 2008 at 1:13 pmJonathan Martin is skeptical about Libertarian Presidential candidate Bob Barr’s ability to catch fire without the help of Ron Paul:
And in my conversation with Paul last month, he showed little enthusiasm for Barr.
Without Paul’s passionate legions, Barr would have a difficult time attracting grass-roots and financial support.
In other words, if Paul stays on the sidelines and does not get behind Barr, the Libertarian nominee could be as much of a non-factor this year as in every other recent presidential cycle.
Sadcox wonders, whether Paul endorses or not, whether Barr can get his hands on Paul’s all important mailing list.
