Does anyone have any data on how they voted in '08? I've found data that showed voters describing themselves as libertarians went for Bush 72-20 and 59-36 in '00 and '04, respectively. For 2008, I've only been able to find a pre-election poll that showed libertarians favoring Obama over McCain 53-38.
Where is this pre-election poll? How did they decide who was a libertarian? Obama was the most un-libertarian candidate in the race.
Hey "libertarian leaning voters" voted 75% for Nixon over McGovern, doesn't mean Nixon was more libertarian than McGovern.
Just saying.

Of course, so you are agreeing with me, correct?
The fact of the matter is that libertarians rarely vote their interests, and frequently align themselves with some pretty un-and-anti-libertarian people.
