Do they think that Republicans don't watch the libertarian vote? I do, because I am more libertarian than Republican, and in DC cast my worthless vote for libertarians whenever one is on the ticket. But I realize that in a real election a vote for a libertarian is 1/2 a vote for a democrat. Changing the Republican party is more feasible than standing up a third party. And with Trump we have moved the Republican party a century ahead in relevancy.
How did politics get to be a life or death matter for so many people? Too much government is how come. Less government and we could all get along a lot better. RINOism, globalism, marxism and crony capitalism made that happen.
A Libertarian IS half a democrat.
