I sure was. We had 5 in Illinois.
It's a healthy sign. Because we're going to need a replacement for the GOP. McCain--Palin has marginalized the Party by writing off their Party's Center in order to appeal to extremists.
Those folks will never come back if there's somewhere else to go.
I voted for Bob Barr, even though Obama's my guy. I think having the Libertarians as the other major Party makes more sense than the Neocon Goosesteppers who have hijacked the Republican Party.

Just goes to show how biased the media is to only focus on the major political parties while we all remain uneducated on a possibly better choice!!

In past elections this might have posed a problem to the major party candidates. This year, it's a non-issue.
