No. Very unlikely he will win. Simply hoping for 5% of voters to wake the hell up.

In this wild scenario the GOP would certainly make sure that happened. But returning to reality, the GOP has already done its utmost to keep Johnson off the ballot in whatever states it could:

"Now that Johnson is threatening to siphon votes from Mitt Romney in close elections in Colorado and Nevada (he’s also on the ballot in 46 other states and Washington, D.C.), Republicans are doing whatever they can to limit his appeal. Michigan party officials kept him off the ballot because he filed his paperwork three minutes late. In Pennsylvania, the GOP hired a private detective who went to canvassers’ homes and flashed his old FBI badge before questioning the signatures they collected, a lawyer for Johnson’s campaign alleged. The state GOP and the investigator denied doing anything improper. (On Oct. 10 a judge decided that Johnson will be on the Pennsylvania ballot.)"

That statement makes the ludicrous assumption that someone voting for Johnson would otherwise have voted for Romney. Certainly not a valid assumption in my case.

I just don't see many Johnson voters leaning towards President Obama.

Besides - the libertarians want change - and voting for President Obama continues the same failed policies of the Democrat party that got us into this mess in the first place.

I would guess that many of us lean toward neither. I wouldn't vote for Obama or Romney even if there were no other choices.

Default Not a chance in hell

Gay Johnson has no more chance of winning than the late Buddy Epsen.

He won't win and if heaven and hell collided and dogs developed the ability to speak English and he does win, no Romney and Obama will not sue.
