ROTFL

Libertarianism? Not hardly. Nothing Obama proposes involves less government involvement. From what I have read, everything involves the government in something. What a horribly arrogant statement to assume that this broad coalition will suddenly form behind Obama. "I'm so afraid that Obama will change the Democratic party with all the support he's getting. He's not drawing many more Republicans than the average Democrat and there's no guaranteeing he will in the general. A lot of these Republicans that crossed over did so to have the chance to vote against Hillary. Don't fool yourself into thinking they will do the same in the general.

Obamamaniacs get better and better!

What are you talking about? You said you were kind of upset because Obama's candidacy would draw in so many Republicans and Libertarians that it would change the face of the party. What was the point of your post if that's not what you said? Just assuming he'd bring in all that support is arrogant enough. Why would Libertarians and Republicans want a tax and spend, big government liberal in the White House.


In short, you have nothing to worry about. I don't see either group jumping ship to support Obama in large quantities. There will always be crossovers ... McCain will get some Democrats as well, but not enough to change the Democratic party.
