So, in essence, you're basically admitting that out of the 4 you listed as "libertarian Democrats" he really can't be included.
So, now let's look at this: James Webb David Hackett John Tester Brian Schweitzer Webb - Yes! The guy sounds amazingly libertarian. Good job there. Hackett - Just about out of the Democrat Party. Nix him. John Tester - A Total hardcore Educrat/Teachers Union Big Labor Socialist who hates anything that even smells libertarian. How he got on this List is anyone's guess. Perhaps the List developer was having one too many Martinis at the time. Brian Schweitzer - Half-way decent. Big supporter of the Military (I think a Veteran), and supporter of the War on Terror. So, he gets some libertarian points on that front. But he's basically a Liberal on Economics, and sort of socially moderate on individual freedom issues. Mixed bag overall. Not a libertarian. Nice guy though. So, we're left with Webb. Who has no chance of winning the Senate race in Virginia. Even the Daily Kos is now counting him out. Very hot Asian wife!! Not a very powerful argument for "libertarian Democrats." --- In [email protected], "steven linnabary" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Eric Dondero Rittberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > Stephen, very interesting article.
