The Club for Growth is is a great organization, but they are NOT libertarian. And you are not going to catch them supporting Obama, that’s for sure.

They are pro free enterprise, capitalism and fiscal conservatism.

About Club for Growth

Club for Growth is a national network of thousands of Americans, from all walks of life, who believe that prosperity and opportunity come through economic freedom. We work to promote public policies that promote economic growth primarily through legislative involvement, issue advocacy, research, training and educational activity.

The primary tactic of the separate Club for Growth PAC is to provide financial support from Club members to viable pro-growth candidates to Congress, particularly in Republican primaries.

Club for Growth Policy Goals:

Making the Bush tax cuts permanent
Death tax repeal
Cutting and limiting government spending
Social Security reform with personal retirement accounts
Expanding free trade
Legal reform to end abusive lawsuits
Replacing the current tax code
School choice
Regulatory reform and deregulation

Those are all libertarian goals. I think if you examine it closely, libertarianism is really just conservatism on steriods. :)

If you’d like to read about what the Club For Growth said about the most libertarian presidential candidate, feel free, I think it’s very fair:
