What would happen if the GOP goes Libertarian?

[5280]

Not going to happen. We need the Republican party to keep the Democrats in check.

I like the map above, California would be a swing state IMO, and the GOP would actually have a presence in New England. North Carolina and Virginia would be trending more GOP with immigrant GOPers going down.

California has changed over the years and Hispanics are unlikely to favor a more libertarian party so New Mexico is unlikely as well.

Why not? Hispanics would love more personal and economic freedom. The "new" Libertarian party would make sense.

No they wouldn't.

In all seriousness Hispanic's are very socially conservative, at least in the sense that they are religous. However they see the GOP as the party of xenophobia and the Democrats as their best chance to succeed in America.  They would follow the Democrats, even if there was a libertarian party. The Catholic Church would not support the libertarians at all, also playing a big factor.

Still, if they were socially conservative, wouldn't it make sense if they were part of the Constitution party?  Isn't that the party of socially religious people?  Most Democrats are nothing but economically resistant.

LOL...

The RR should join the constitution party and go against the green party.

That maps looks all wacked up, but it would be interesting.

Killing the fetus is attacking someone's liberty.  You have the choice to have the kid, you have the choice to adopt or not have a kid (without abortion).

You never know, if you kill the fetus, it could of been a smart adult in the future or a down syndrome baby.  Either adopt or don't have the kid in the first place.  That's individual liberty.
