Keep in mind that this forum (and therefore the Democrats and Republicans that its members interact with) is a lot younger than America in general, and especially primary voters.  I think fiscal issues matter most in the "real world," and so I'll answer one of those.  Given that the Reagan-era GOP has largely dictated the fiscal debate for decades - leading to more fiscal moderates in the Democratic Party - I'll say that a fiscal liberal in the GOP is the least welcome.  I can't imagine a decade in which a "fiscally liberal" Republican (or more appropriately, an economic populist/pro-union/"anti-business"/etc. Republican) candidate would have not been the least welcome...

Tossup between Fiscally Liberal Republican and Socially Conservative Democrat

Easily the former of those. I've had no problems feeling 'welcomed' from other Democrats.

I haven't sufficiently stalked your posts (Tongue), but it doesn't seem like you advertise your social conservatism nearly as much as your fiscal populism.
