Epic fail.

For America it is.

Apparently he got a record vote total for any Libertarian Party Presidential candidate. Not the 5% some were hoping for(which might not have been realistic anyway given that after fighting GOP efforts to keep him off ballot in some states he had no money left over for advertising) but still a record for a Libertarian candidate.

Enough to keep Mitt from the White House.

Thanks Gary!

It is a good trend.

People say to vote for a 3rd party, you're just throwing your vote away. I completely disagree. If the 2 parties are disappointing you, and during an election neither candidate is what you want, then it is still good to make a statement.

Maybe by next election, that 1% will grow into something more.

GJ is still young and in incredible shape. He'll still be able to make a run 20 years from now. It's a matter of getting the populace to open up to the idea of a 3rd party and growing tired of voting lesser of two evils.

The Libertarian party made a good run. They got on the ballots. Christ, on almost everybody's ballot, it read Obama, Romney, Johnson as the top 3.

If Johnson tries again, he's going to have a much fatter rolodex to call on next time around, and much more experience at running. More Ron Paul fans will have moved over to his camp, etc.

I could see him getting the 5% next time.

I'm of the 1%....

Don't feel rich. D:

Over 1 million of us cast a vote for him, that's a lot of people and a lot of support. We need to just keep fighting for liberty.
