What Libertarian is voting for Dems? Get serious.

It's either Republicans (in my case this year), Libertarians, or stay home.

Actually it does happen. I'm listening to a Delaware radio talk show, and a candidate for one of the legislative offices, who is running as an independent/libertarian was just on talking about how he is looking forward to a democrat controlled congress and State House of Representatives.

I've known the guy for years, so I know he is speaking the truth. he is also campaign manager for a candidate that is running as an independent because she lost the Dem primary for the lone congressional seat.

I agree. I cannot imagine why Libertarians would be inclined to vote for the party that introduced Socialism to America and strives to perpetuate its continuation.
The only thing that I can think of would be that Democrats are more and more secular in their thinking, and many libertarians are opposed to a conservative social agenda. I consider myself a libertarian but not a pure Ayn Rand type. Milton Friedman is my role model. Also, Barry Goldwater--kep government out of our pockets and bedrooms.

No true Libertarian or libertarian would EVER vote for an unrepentant Statist, which all Democrats are.

Libertarians are Goldwater Republicans.

Shrink government size, spending and control. The Republicans have done a BAD job of this under Bush.

Keep religion out of politics. Again, the Republicans have done a BAD job of this under Bush.

I admit that the Democrats will do a worse job, but if you wonder why Libertarians are pi$$ed at Republicans....

The DU'ers claim the Libertarians as their voters, then claim that's why they have the majority. Then the Libertarians post over there, and the DU'ers rip 'em a new one for being conservatives. It's sort of funny to watch. Also proves that DU really is a playground for clowns.
