Needs repeating. Idiotic libertarians. They deserve what they get now.

LOL again! Did Libertarian candidates lose 26 House seats & six Senate seats?

We don't hold power anywhere, remember?

I'm a small-L Libertarian who voted straight Republican. Lots of Libertarians did. If the GOP got spanked that's their fault, right? I though Republicans were supposed to be champions of individual responsibility?

Let me break it down to you.

The problem is that in this form of government, the time to vote libertarian is in a party primary.

If you _really do_ have libertarian values, you belong in the R party and should want the R party to win. It gives you a bigger voice and the chance to push your party.

Christian Coalition, after Robertson's loss, could easily have become a 'third party' but instead they took root in the R party and then, in time, dominated it.
