If it becomes a large "L" libertarian thing I don't think it's for me. If it's a freedom thing, small "l" libertarian deal that's a different story.

Agreed. I've never claimed to be either a lower nor upper-case L/libertarian, but I think they'd be better neighbors than a lot of others I could name.

Too, I figure I have a lot better chance at influencing the general direction of wayward Libertarians [...must...pass...tax...measure....!] than *progressive* Republicans who take their party away from it's conservative strengths [as per Bush in '92] or foaming-at-the-mouth liberal Dems.

It's as interesting to watch the proponents for different answers to the key decision of *which state* coalesce as it is to watch a sheepdog working his flock. No biting; it violates at least the spirit of the libbies nonagressive principle.

Hmmm, maybe *Libertarian enforcer* would make a good job description....

I agree.
I'd take a Libertarian ( big or small L) over a RAT or a RINO any day of the week

One other thing is they should do some legwork/recon before picking a state. See how the locals feel, get endorsements etc.

If the people there feel put upon it could be very counter productive. Also, running large "L" libs in elections where you have pro-American repubs could yield Dems. That would suck too.

These guys need some pros and high profile types on their side. That Jason guy is likeable and has some good ideas, but a Libertarian head banger might not be the best face for this huge endeavor.

Although if 50,000 Libertarians did actually do this, you're right. They'd make much better neighbors than the selfish leftist scumbags that are taking over my area.

A lot to think about.
