I guess I'd be a DINO if I were a Democrat...

You know you're on the internet when even many of the Democrats affiliate with a crazy libertarian group no-one has ever heard of.

I'm too liberal on economics to be a Blue Dog, but too conservative on social issues and foreign policy to be a Progressive.  I'm a Democrat without a caucus  Cry

You belong in the Likud Party.

Pretty much opposites, those two.

Not really, there's a lot of overlap between the far left and certain libertarians.

Except McGovern isn't that far left.  He's a fairly standard liberal, at least on economic issues.  There may be some overlap on social issues, but I'd still say there's a good amount of distance between the two.

McGovern was a mixed bag economically - his proposal for a minimum guaranteed income was fairly ludicrous, but he also campaigned for a balanced budget. Socially, there is little to no distinction between McGovern's platform of 1972 and my own political views, though I'm certainly somewhat to his left in general principle.

Anybody who would have voted Nixon in 1972 and claims to be a libertarian is a scum and an unprincipled hypocrite.

You calling yourself a Libertarian is just as hypocritical.
