Most unfortunately, the Libertarian Party and all other independents continue to be disenfranchised by a corrupt process which alienates all but the GOP & the Dems. The MSM need fodder for 24/7 news coverage so they like to discuss the "potential" Barr factor and the "possibilities" of him affecting the Georgia vote. Talk is cheap.

He got 19% of the vote in 1992. With $4 gas, the worst housing market in 70 years, a collapsed dollar, a towering national debt, and the imminent re-appearance of Jimmy Carter stagflation, the voters are even more disgusted today, with 85% of the population saying the country is headed in the wrong direction. The guy is already at 6% in the latest Zogby Poll. I think it’s quite possible for Barr to meet the 10% polling criteria to get into the Google/You Tube Presidential debate. If he does, then Perot’s numbers aren’t out of the question. Two words: Ross Perot… He got 19% of the vote in 1992.
