    Neither won. Huge waste of time. It’s almost August. Every single one of these young libertarians and conservatives should be out walking precincts for Republican candidates.

    We’ll have time to debate libertarianism vs. conservativism after November; after we kick the crap out of the evil Democrats.

    LIBERTARIANS AND CONSERVATIVES UNITED AGAINST ALL DEMOCRATS!!!

    Yeah
    Jeb Bush 2012.
    Mike Huckabee for small government.
    Give those rascals the intellectual cover they need to plunder and loot the public in the name of keeping those evil democrats at bay

    Conservatism and Libertarianism were irrevocably severed in the debate when it came down to the question of virtue.

    Conservatives equated the libertarian stance of freedom to sin with Satan.
