I've looked into the Pirate Party but, at least from the American side of things, they seem like a 'one hit wonder' who's nearly solely focused on IP law reform. Perhaps this isn't the same in other places (I can't imagine they would have won major elections with a single issue platform) but here in the States, where they exist, it seems to be the case.
