http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/gary-johnson-blows-up-at-guardian"I'm an idiot," Johnson responded. "Really. I'm the dumbest guy that you've ever met in your whole life."
"I'm trying to work out if that's sarcasm or not," Lewis replied.
"It is," Johnson said. "I hope it's sarcasm."
He went on to reference his high-profile gaffe on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" in September, when he responded to a question about the Syrian civil war by asking: And what is Aleppo?
"I'm not a dummy," Johnson went on. "I'm not."
I think Gary Johnson needs a nap. And maybe a snack of a cookie and some milk.

Nixon: "I am not a crook"
Obviously practically all of Johnson's polling support is from people trying to lodge a "none of the above" complaint. The question is whether any of them will bother to vote -- and will they still be in protest mode when they actually cast their ballot.
I bet Johnson gets less than 3% of the popular vote nationwide. If a person is protesting, they might as well stay home. Giving this idiot a vote isn't much of a protest.

(53,342 posts)I don't get the Libertarian Party. Their candidates, when looked at with the slightest bit of analysis, fall apart and crumble before your eyes. wrt to policy and personality.
But this lunatic is polling about 7%??
