It's a good thing somebody brought this thread up.

I doubt this will ever happen.  We already have the Constitution party and obviously the party I'm in right now. The Constitution party is for social conservative/economic conservative people.  Libertarian party is social liberal/moderate, economic conservative.  If the Republican party ever split up, the two "new" parties would be smaller and probably alienate other people and they could join either the Democrat party or be unaffliated.  That is not good.

The reason I switched parties was the GOP was becoming too much of a party to the Christians/Evangelicals and not focusing enough on being pro-capitalist or business friendly. Also McCain losing election in 2008. Bob Barr could of got my vote, but he always flip flopped on issues such as the patriot act and immigration.  No, my social issues aren't exactly liberal, but they are moderate. I only wish the GOP would stick with the small government agenda that they always talk about.  I will still vote for GOP or Libertarian, depending on the candidate and who is running.

While we are dividing beyond recognition, could we add a third "National Party" for those of us who aren't Libertarians, aren't extremely social conservative, and who support the pre-culture-war GOP Smiley
Isn't the Reform party for that?
