I am a small government, libertarian Republican - however, the LP is for open borders and I'm not. The LP do have some great ideas - but cutting defense in the post 9/11 world is not my idea of keeping the USA free of terrorist attacks.

Do I support McCain 100%? Hell no -- I trust him only on 2 issues - the WOT and tax cuts, that is it. Voting 3rd party is not going to wake up the leaders of the GOP, we need to get into the GRASSROOTS and root out RINOS. Trying to show the REPUBLICAN you are mad, is not going to do anything - except helping the DEMS screw up the country.

I'll grant you one thing, if McCain gets a RINO as a VP, I might vote for Barr. I might vote for Chuck Baldwin, the CONSITUTION Party candidate. (and I guess he's not perfect either. Doing some research on them).

What I'm saying is that I'm not sure where I'll end up if the REPUBLICAN PARTY leaves me -- I might rejoin the LP, or the SIP (Southern Independence Party) or the Consitution Party. I'm mad at the GOP, but having the government controlled by DEMS is not my idea of fun -- yes it might wake up the GOP, but Barak might make Carter's years look like REAGAN.

This Election might be the death knell of being free. I'm depressed.

I think voting 3rd party WILL show the RINOs we want them out. I will probably vote for the CP candidate this year. I don't even trust McCain on tax cuts as he voted against both of Bush's tax cuts the first two times. I agree with trying to change the RP from inside but all that's happened in the last 8 years is the RLC has lost more and more power.

I agree with you about open borders. It is a bad, bad idea in the 21st century--even ignoring the defense aspect of letting terrorist in--we simply have too many socialistic programs to allow every 3rd worlder come in here with their hands out for freebies. However, McCain is about about as open borders as the libertarian party is.
