DAMN THE TWO PARTY SYSTEM :shakefist:
I've been saying this was going to happen eventually.
More people today actually know what Libertarians stand for instead of the propaganda Repubs and Dems spew about them.
Freedom is catching on.

:facepalm:It is a two party race

Quote:
Without facing a Democratic rival, Republican U.S. Rep. David Jolly takes a 17-point lead over Libertarian Lucas Overby in a November rematch for Pinellas County’s 13th Congressional District, according to the latest StPetePolls survey.


He is getting killed.

Quote:
Romano predicts an interesting “mating dance” coming between Overby and Democrats in months leading to the November race against David Jolly.

The Libertarian has already siphoned off most of the Democratic votes, running at 43 percent among Ds. Only 27 percent have broken to Jolly, while 30 percent remain undecided.


Libertarian my ass.  The Libertarian Party is a joke

Not sure if you read my post but I already said:
"What I thought was most interesting though, was that there isn't even a democrat running. So essentially it's still just two parties."

How is LP a joke? The presidential nominee is a two-term governer. Not exactly sure how that's "a joke." Care to explain why that is or are you just going to say it's stupid?


What Presidential nominee?

I have no hope for the branded Libertarian Party but I have great hope that we can push Republicans in that direction.  There is no shot that The Democrat Party will ever embrace libertarianism.

Depends.  We embrace it better than Republicans for person freedoms (gay marriage, pot legalization, etc), but not for corporate freedoms (lower wages, pollution, etc).


--------------------
I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them.  I also attack my side if I think they're wrong.  People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

Democrats

Bullshit.  The fact that you even mention wages at all in this context means you are no libertarian.

Personal freedoms huh? I wouldn't call our current Healthcare situation personal freedom. Quite the opposite.

I (along with every other liberal I know) would have much preferred a single payer system to the Romneycare model, so no one would be stuck with premiums. :shrug:

A single payer healthcare system is even further from libertarianism.

http://mises.org/

Even on issues like gay marriage they are no way libertarian, they use the iron fist of government. They usurp the will of the people with the power of government.

What the democrats believe in is doing what's politically beneficial to them. The dems weren't all about the gay marriage 10 years ago because it was not popular with the people; shoot Obama was (ostensibly) against it only a few years ago and only "evolved" on the issue because of unhappy campaign bundlers.

Is there are a particular article on that site you thought was relevant?

So we're more 'free' when a lot of us can't afford health care?
