Attack of the Dean-Leaners The Libertarian Case for the Democrats

They 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

You give the libertarians waaaay too much credit.

George HW Bush got us eight years of Clinton.

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.
