Why isn't Communitarianism more popular as an ideology?

[War on Want]

So, in any case, are there any forms of a social conservative/fiscally liberal ideology in the U.S.?  It doesn't have to be CD or communitarianism (whatever that is).  And no, fascism doesn't count.

Lots of Democrats fit the bill for social conservative/fiscally liberals.

[War on Want]

Because, especially in recent decades, the vast majority of Americans tend to value individual freedom over collective action; though we may differ as to the actual definition of 'freedom'.

However, many modern day Republicans, especially ones like Huckabee, are increasingly communitarian/populist. Also, the Democrats used to have a very strong populist wing (especially in the South).

I really don't think most Americans value individual freedom more than collective action. Has libertarianism improved its numbers compared to Populism? Yes, but I still think that Populism is much more popular than libertarianism in America.

Examples?  I'm trying to assemble a list.

Sure, most politicians we label as populists, prime examples include:

Gov. Brad Henry
Sen. Ben Nelson
Sen. Mark Pryor
Sen. Bob Casey Jr.
Gov. Bill Ritter

Henry, and Nelson are not populists at all, but rather centrists or even conservatives.
