And I attacked them because they cost us Senate seats

Not really. The Republicans didn't address libertarian issues like smaller, less intrusive government. So the libertarian voter didn't vote for those candidates. Seems logical enough.

These threads are ludicrous. Conrad Burns campaigned all over Montana bragging about the pork he brings back from Washington and how valuable his seniority was to his voters. And people are surprised that Libertarians didn't support him?

Burns obviously knew there were more votes to be won on the left by bragging about pork than libertarian votes to be lost. And he almost won, so he was probably right. But it's ridiculous to blame the libertarians for not voting for someone whose views are antithetical to their own.
