| rocketpig said: You're not. As of this election, had I been allowed to vote (it appears that California fucked up my absentee ballot), I would have voted Obama. With most Libertarians, I think it's a give-take trade. In the past, I found the dogmatic social principles of the Republican party tolerable because they, by and large, spent less than the Democrats when in power. See Clinton's 1994-1998 Congresses for examples of this. Also, in case you haven't noticed, the Republicans give the Religious Right mic time and little else. They squawk a lot but nothing got done - well, until the Patriot Act, but that's part of my next point... Now, the Republicans spend more, try to restrict us more privately, and basically fail on every principles of the Libertarian Party past "tax less". I think you'll see more and more Libertarians vote Democrat until this changes.

I am more inclined to vote Obama than McCain, but I will vote for neither of them. They both advocate many policies I disagree with...only McCain advocates a foreign policy that we can no longer afford to perpetuate.
