Johnson is almost as crazy as Trump, just with fewer excuses since he's held political office. He seemed like a viable candidate until they stuck a camera and a mic in front of him. Jesus that turned out to be a disaster.
As for the election, my only issue is with anyone who didn't vote for Clinton (whether abstaining or voting third-party) and then pitched an apoplectic fit when Trump won. I get the impression that a Clinton win was far preferable to them, so if they decided to 'protest' by staying home or voting 'other' then they're part of the reason she lost. If they felt that both candidates were awful and we were screwed either way, then a third-party vote wasn't wasted or misguided or 'the reason she lost' etc. Doubly-so for those who stayed home, since they might have had an effect on local politics if they'd voted. We weren't only selecting a President that day.
I voted third-party. I doubt my vote would've changed Trump's victory in my state, and under those circumstances my vote was irrelevant anyway.
