Libertarian ideals of small, limited government are still the most important fundamental basis of our founding... no matter what whackos who are interviewed by the (not exactly libertine) MSM say. Nothing will change that fact, nor my support of those ideals... and if Libertarins are elected in droves, I will firmly oppose those who say that those ideals include elimination of the military, legalization of narcotics, etc.
There are some good Libertarians such as Carla Howell in Mass. who are making a difference.
