"The way I see it, the only solution is to move over to the Libertarian party"
That's what my wife and I have both done as of the '04 cycle.
They have issues too re foreign affaris, etc.., buit they're orders of magnitude closer to my vieww than the pubs.
And while they can't really hope to win, at least if they start polling better maybe it'll "send a message" .
You know what message you and your wife have actually sent? THAT YOU AREN'T A RELIABLE VOTER AND DON'T MATTER TO THE GOP AT ALL. So, in order to appeal to more voters, they go left. Yep, you really "taught 'em a lesson"....NOT! LOL
Read the LP platform! They are for open borders. Are you for that? They are for the legalization of prostitution, all now illegal substances, and for the lowering the voting age to ten years of age. You like all of that too, do you? And they are against the WoT; from going into Afghanistan to Iraq and anything else, the WoT might involve.There's more, but it really should be on your shoulders, to find out what the LP really stands for and doesn't.
