You seriously think electing a libertarian at a time when the world is teetering on the brink of another great depression would still be a good idea ? Or do you just wish to register a protest vote ?

BTW, the Palin thing (call it what you will), is strictly non-partisan these days... blogs.tnr.com Charles Fried, a professor at Harvard Law School, has long been one of the most important conservative thinkers in the United States. Under President Reagan, he served, with great distinction, as Solicitor General of the United States. Since then, he has been prominently associated with several Republican leaders and candidates, most recently John McCain, for whom he expressed his enthusiastic support in January. This week, Fried announced that he has voted for Obama-Biden by absentee ballot. In his letter to Trevor Potter, the General Counsel to the McCain-Palin campaign, he asked that his name be removed from the several campaign-related committees on which he serves. In that letter, he said that chief among the reasons for his decision "is the choice of Sarah Palin at a time of deep national crisis." Fried is exceptionally thoughtful and principled; his vote for Obama is especially noteworthy.
