Every convention, though, it is challenged by the anti-abortion wing of the Libertarian Party. They just haven't had sufficient votes to carry the day. It is unlikely they will, but they keep trying.

Well... at least this puts the Libertarians miles to the right of the Democrats.

But on an issue that strikes so close to the heart of the principles of the party, don't you find such a split troubling, regardless of your own conclusion on the matter? As far as I can tell, only a relatavist could find disagreement on such a fundamental matter comforting.

Why? Those anti-abortion advocates in the LP continue to remain in the LP in spite of its rather overwhelming majority in favor of female sovereignty over her own body. I guess they are sufficiently comfortable -- it's not like the Republicans or Democrats give them anywhere else to go.
