Reply 28 and 127 is what libertarians think they are, but aren't.
Most of the other replies are not worth reading for one reason or another: redundancy, inaneness, inaccuracy or just being wrong, etc.
Republicans aren't devoted to either the conservative or libertarian position, but are more in tune with conservatives, albeit many are quite (read "far too") liberal in construing what ought to be meant by Constitutionally-limited government.
Probably the most important item to realize, though, is that the net effect is that "libertarian voters" are not taking away any votes from Republicans, and it is important to forget pandering for them. In many ways, they have more in common with the "greens" and "anti-globalists" and their anarchical views are self-marginalizing.

No kidding, Libertarians do more to get Liberal Democrats elected than Republicans.
As far as I am concerned, a Libertarian is a liberal DU poster of FR.
