I vote "NO". In the handful of responses I read, the people that seem to lean towards the "yes" answer argue that the Republican party is the only party that can defeat the left, so we must support it. However, you say yourself that your goal is to defeat the Left and Liberalism, and while parties may be a good generalization of who is on the Right and Left, it is not conclusive. In fact there are Republicans who are virtually no better than Democrats. We need to keep the fight against liberalism a matter of principle and not allow it to degenerate into party politics. We must oppose liberalism no matter what party it chooses to rear its head in. Take a look at George Bush's domestic agenda....other than a tax cut that was bastardized into a subsidy for those that pay no income tax, what good did it do to support the Republican candidate? We sacrificed victory over liberalism for a victory over a political party.
