This appears to be the direction many conservatives are going to go. The traditional social conservative platform (pro-life and pro traditional marriage) is not going to get much love from the Republican Party OR from conservatives like Beck and others that would prefer to move in a more libertarian direction. The problem is that while the social conservative movement may be shrinking, no right of center party (Republican, Libertarian or otherwise) is going to be able to win without these voters - not for at least another generation.

You can’t be conservative if you aren’t, and libertarians are not conservatives.

Conservatives are just that, conservative, something that libertarians are out to destroy.
