Attack of the Dean-Leaners The Libertarian Case for the DemocratsThey got us eight years of Clinton, too. Thanks for nothing.
I'm beginning to think they're Democrats in sheeps clothing anyway. Their track record really sucks!

If the Libertarians side with Dean, their journey to irrelevance will increase to warp speed

If the Libertarians side with Dean, their journey to irrelevance will increase to warp speed I believe that you confuse Libertarians with libertarians. I agree with you that the 'L' libertarians are on that road.

George HW Bush got us eight years of Clinton.Nah. The vote was close, and Clinton barely slipped in. Had we had more Libertarians on out team, it never would have happened.
Same happended for Clintons re-election. Does Perot ring a bell?
Right now, I think most people, being basically conservative at heart, will get Bush through the next one.

They don't get off square one in convincing me Howard Dean is libertarian in any way.
I want the government to protect individuals against predation by other individuals, to protect the nation against foreign enemies, and to otherwise keep the hell away from me.
As I see it, Dean goes 0-for-3.
To: RJCogburn
Instead, you'd just write in the name of the person you'd most like to see hold the office.
Bingo!

Nah. That wouldn't work. If someone forgot to dot an "i", it would be countred as a vote for Al Gore.

Yeah you're right.
Next time instead of bothering to drive to the polls.........
I'll just check the Diebold website to see who's going to "win"

What a load of crap! I am just about as far from a democrat as you can get. The only one farther away is God. Quit generalizing!

Libertarians are schmucks.
They pine for a utopian system that is at odds with where the center of the country is. In return, Democrats get to rule.
Prats.
Be Seeing You,

Bill Niskanen is correct, mixed government does slow the growth of government. But, I would hope - having consolidated the Republican Revolution of 1994 - that we would be speaking of reducing the size of government. In the present era, the problem is Democrats slowing down the pace of change. This, indeed, was Clinton's boast. Regarding socialized medicine, the issue isn't when we will get it (i.e., the slowing down perspective), but when we will get liberalization of the health care industry. Same thing with social security privatization and education vouchers/tax credits. The answer isn't bein for Howard Dean for president, who has no chance of election anyway, it's getting a few more Jeff Flakes into Congress.

The only thing wrong with the Libertarians, is there open border/unsecured border policy. I cant vote for any party who wont protect our borders, and who see nothing wrong with letting in hundreds of millions/billions of foreigners coming into this country if they want to. Why even call it a country if you dont have borders?
To: waterstraat
Wow....it's amazing how folks here tend to generalize thematically on "what" Libertarians may or may not believe. Please refrain from quoting from the so-called Libertarian platform...that's the same as believing every Republican supports their parties platform 100% of the time.
Most Libertarians vote pragmatically and for whatever party they more strongly associate with...
