I just think the LP and the GOP should merge. As a Libertarian Republican, I just think the LP would help the GOP -- eventhou I have a few issues with the LP, but I do have issues with the GOP, but the GOP is going to be the majority party for a long time.

I've often said that the best hope for libertarians was to work within the GOP structure, building a power base, and using that power base to influence the party as a whole. The LP allows them to posture and preen, but is largely ineffective outside of the occasional "spoiler" candidate.

I couldn't agree more being another liberterian Republican. The problem is a lot of the deemed "religious-right" Republicans see as RINOs.
