New at Reason: Matt Welch's one-man team coverage of the California recall enters the home stretch with a look at five fringe candidates you might consider throwing your vote away on. Matt will be covering the recall as it winds to what will undoubtedly be a ridiculous conclusion. Stay tuned.

A sixth candidate could also be mentioned; Gary Coleman. If
you'll look up some of the things he's said re the election, you
will see he is more libertarian than some of those hippy-dippy,
pinko-commie, lily-livered, acid-doper-rocker,
egg-sucking-dogs.
For smaller government there's only one choice: Coleman.
Georgy is cute, but not really Lib at all. A far better candidate to list would have been BE Smith, who would release all nonviolent drug offenders from prison and has a great candidate statement railing against tyranny.
Its pretty refreshing to see that all or most of these candidates support legalizing marijuana despite their different political beliefs. Its almost enough to give me hope that we will be hearing this from mainstream candidates one day.
Laaaadieeeees and Gennnnntlemen and Children of all ages! Welcome to the greatest gubernatorial recall on earth!
What about mad genius Robert Anton Wilson, who is the unofficial write-in candidate for the Guns and Dope Party?
Brooke Adams is my dream girl. The specific dream involves a preppy OC dominatrix who will enact class struggle fantasies with me, all the while reading her responses like this to me.
