"Special thanks to the Libertarians there - dyfunctional and destructive as ever."

I've noticed the (L) candidates in several close races around the nation that went to the Democrats.

Reminds me of Perot giving the election to Bill Clinton.

I will vote Libertarian until they get the message.

I remember when Republicans stood for smaller budgets, cutting the size of government. Gosh, here we are, more than 14 years later, and we still have bloated budgets and the government is incredibly huge.

Got a better thing for you to blame - Democrats who seemed to be the only ones who claimed to be out to cut the budget. Do not blame a third party for losses that should never have happened in the first place. If you want their votes, campaign for them, rather than expecting them. Take up their issues, or shut up when you lose.

Losertarians as Medved rightly calls them.

No doubt some of the "L" candidates where "recruited" by the "D"s.

Maybe if the GOP actually followed their principles, this wouldn't have happened.

Makes you wonder if George Soros was donating to the campaigns of the local Libertarian candidates.

ACLU was pushing for the local Libertarian, Smither in TX CD22, who drew some Republican voters away from the Republican write-in candidate.

The DNC actually gave $50k to a nobody write-in candidate, in another attempt to bleed off support for the Republican write-in candidate.
