The party is "badly fractured" because the msm created it. If you really followed conservative values, you'd see, this is a msm manufactured phenomena, and those 'true conservatives' have bought it hook line and sinker..

I have great disdain for the MSM, and they have been a disaster in our Britney Spears society, but this past year there has been enough that the MSM didn't create happen that a person has to step back and ask what is going on here?

I saw through their Foley crap, it didn't stop me from going out to vote last month and yet there is a lot of people here who are proud to say they voted Libertarian.

I don't think they voted L because of the MSM (I may be wrong, but don't think so), but because they were angry and voted their anger. The MSM is dying a slow death of their own choosing, one could make the same case for our party right now and hiding from it or trashing the people who are spewing things you don't like (or because they signed up on FR in 2004) doesn't provide a solution... instead trying to engage these people in discourse to determine what they are angry about and hashing out the differences is much more productive. In the end that person may still vote L or C and not R in 2008, but if we can hash things out maybe a lot fewer will do so.
