If Republicans want libertarian support, then they maybe ought to do things that libertarians like and Republicans like too. Maybe try reducing the size, budget, and regulatory reach of the federal government. Oh, I forgot, Republicans really don’t want to cut government. They just want to reward different folks than the Democrats do. Sorry. My bad.

I agree and disagree. If libertarians had the votes they would face the problem of the corruption of power also from their elected officials (think vice industries wouldn’t offer some incentives for the libertarians to go too far on freedoms related to the vices?). That said, we (the base) agree on the basic idea that the government should be smaller. It’s the party professionals that don’t agree. We need to get involved in primaries and stop taking whatever the party offers us in the general election.
