32. Are you quite sure of that? "Viable 3rd Party?" No, no, no--not here.

We support Democrats, not 3rd parties, for election here. And Libertarians are basically Republicans who want to smoke pot. They don't give a shit about anyone but themselves--they're not good people. "Antisocial and Selfish" should be their motto.

As for Johnson/Weld, the only reason they and that CIA guy are running is to get REPUBLICANS to the polls, to try and mitigate the bloodshed that will happen downticket.

FWIW, Bill Weld went to school with Bill and Hillary Clinton. He thought Bill was smart, but he thought Hillary was fooking BRILLIANT. His praise for her in past interviews has been nothing short of effusive.
