North Carolina really is in play.

Libertarian presidential candidate Bob Barr is coming to the Triangle on Tuesday, Oct. 28. It will be his first appearance since May, when he attended the state Libertarian Party convention.

Barr will speak at Duke University at 5 p.m., then at UNC-Chapel Hill at 8 p.m.

He is the only third-party candidate to appear on the North Carolina ballot. Some have argued with a tight race between Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain that he could be a spoiler.

Barr has polled between one and five percent in North Carolina polls since September, although he is not always included.

I'd love for Mr. Barr to explain how his wanting to outlaw Pagan soldiers' right to worship on-base is in line with Libertarian philosophy.
