Libertarian Party of Pittsburgh

McCain is very much on record criticizing others for attempting to sideline his own election hopes a few years back through the use of legal tactics designed to exhaust the finances of less well capitalized rivals, and moreover, to simply keep competition off the ballot. Yes, this is common in this, the “land of the free” where republican and democrats trot out the world “democracy” only when it suits their own political needs. Hear Bob Barr’s situation, and John McCain’s campaign is working feverishly using lawyers as much as possible to keep him off the ballots in many sates.

On that subject, please consider a post earlier today where the political establishment will simply allow both R’s and D’s to violate campaign laws so they may be on the ballot.
