Ask the Libertarians, who selected their own version of Mitt Romney. They selected former Republican governor of New Mexico Gary Johnson as their presidential candidate. You only have to look back at every Republican nominee dating back to 1992 to find a party making more safe choices.
Of course, current Republican nominee Donald Trump is excluded from the list of GOP safe choices. I find it amazing the Republicans have turned radical with their choice, as the Libertarians went dull? Maybe it has something to do with how many Republicans have turned Libertarian lately?
I confess to being disappointed. I will support Johnson, and vote for him, but don't expect excitement from me. Austin Petersen was the best presidential choice since Reagan in 1984. Going from Petersen to Johnson was like going from a Lamborghini to a used minivan. The minivan may be more practical, but...Lamborghini, man?!
But the Libertarians still have to get from point A to point B. Can the uninspiring Johnson get them there?
This is the ride selected by Libertarians. I suppose it is better than the Republican tricycle and the Democrat's getaway car...
