Dean Barkley has contributed to the current stalemate in the U.S. Senate, struggling with the porky stimulus package put together by Obama and those tax fuzzy Demo camp followers.

How has he contributed? He didn’t get elected.

There is no evidence that another big shot of mineral water will affect the national and world economic crisis. Obama seems unsure about how his big bailout package will guarantee a positive response to job and housing areas. He only creates a deeper hole for our heirs to dig out of.

There, we agree.

If small business creates eighty percent of jobs, where is Mondale’s “beef” for small business.?

Best thing government can do for small businesses is get out of the way of all businesses.

That might be too wordy to use, though. Other than that, I think it’s fine.

How about:

Neither the Constitution nor Green Parties received as many votes for US Senate nationwide as Dean Barkley did?

Too wordy?

Honestly Ross, I considered including the CP in the headline…but then it would read that Barkley outpolled the GP and CP–which could me misconstrued to mean he outpolled them combined.

Ross,

I used the GP because they were close to the same number.

Dean Barkley stood for ending the Iraq War, cutting government spending, balancing the budget, decriminalizing marijuana, and against helmut laws and gun laws. His vote total is a vote for freedom.

Bravo Dean Barkley!

Trent – why didn’t you include the Constitution Party in the headline? That just seems a bit unfair to the GP.

How many votes (or signatures, or anything else besides troll comments) did LJ get?

Yea, well he got more votes in MN than half of all the Libertarian US senate candidates did.

Dean Barkley sucked. Oh man, did you watch him in the debates? Horrible. I could’ve did better than he did.
