Huckabee attacks Libertarianism

[Brandon H]

How long will it take for Huckabee to realize that socially liberal and economically conservative is not a completely description of libertarianism?

Getting a off topic, but as to whether is there is room for libertarians in the Republican Party: the party is only concerned with two things. 1. You support the Iraq War and 2. You support John McCain. Otherwise, the Republican leadership could care less if you are a conservative, libertarian, populist, or even a liberal. They didn't tell the libertarian wing to f*** off because it's controlled by fundamentalist populists (quoting Fezzy). They told the libertarian wing to f*** off because it is opposed to the war. Now look at Liebermann. Liebermann isn't a conservative and isn't a Republican, but he supports the war in Iraq and look how close he and McCain are. I'm sure he had a lot of help getting re-elected from Republicans in 2006. So support for the war is more important than support for limited government.
