Libertarians destroyed several Republicans' chances in the last election. I have no use for Libertarians.

Do you have any use for RINOs? They have cost the party a lot more than Libertarians have. If the Pubbies would get back to their long held core beliefs, the LP would wither away and die, and disgusted former-Pubbie-now-independants like me might actually come back.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Well, if your squishy, compassionate conservatives would actually stand up for something people would vote for them. I am a registered Republicritter and I voted Libertarian last time except for Marilyn Musgrave who I think is a constitutionalist. I guess my views are just too conservative for most Republicans who are the political equivalent of 1970's Democrats. You brave loyalists seem to think every one who doesn't agree with your point of view deserves the axe. Blind faith will be the destruction of this nation.

That is a recipe for more of the same.  It didn't
work before, it won't in the future.  Are you
into masochism?

Can you name a single Republican who both supported the Reagan legacy, and lost due to Libertarians?

I suggest that the Republicans who lost were either lukewarm Conservatives, or uninterested in individual rights such as gun rights, property rights, etc.

That's nonsense that has been thoroughly debunked. In SD there were 20,000 Republicans who voted for the Democrat. That far exceeds the number of Libertarian votes.

I split my ticket in California because I just could not stomach some of the Republicans. McPherson boasted of casting the deciding vote to ban off-shore drilling (part of the problem). Conlon boasted of chairing the corrupt CPUC (part of the problem). Ackerman is a gun grabber.

I'm certainly willing to cast Republican votes for reasonable candidates, but some of these guys are too much to stomach. No one has a right to my vote, whether they have an R or an L beside their name. Besides, it was fun voting for the ferret guy for Lt. Governor.
