Neither has a sterling record. Republicans have at least addressed the idea of limited government. Once upon a time, they actually believed in limited government. But when asked how they would address real problems such as pollution, crime, race relations, etc...they gave us "pollution is good for you!", the War on Drugs for crime fighting, and a Southern strategy (which meant kissing up to overt segregationists in return for votes) to address ethnic conflicts in America. Don't worry the Demos have their own warts. Now with the advent of the Neocon/Social Conservative movement we have something called "big government conservatism"(America on the march to promote its interests as a Bible-believing Christian nation) The movement called libertarianism is going to have to either build a movement outside the traditional party system and seek to transform society independently of that system or enter one or both parties and transform them from within. I can see good arguments both ways. Arguing which party is less bad is a pointless exercise and a waste of energy. Greg
