Do you think Libertarian Bob Barr could cause disgruntled Republicans to vote for him, thus giving the election to Obama?

The "Nader effect" again. Barr is from Georgia. It is possible but unlikely that Georgia could go for Obama. In polls, he is the difference between Obama and McCain being in the lead in several states that are very close. However, this assumes that all Libertarians would vote Republican, and the Libertarians and Republicans have less in common than the Democrats and the Greens, because the Republicans have decided it is more important to get votes from the Religious Right than to do anything fiscally conservative whatsoever.
