 PN>  "Libertarian Republican" is not necessarily oxymoronic.

 Noted.  To address your original question, to which my last comment was
 non-responsive: given the nature of politics at the national level,
 then yes, I'd suggest that libertarians either become Republicans or
 that libertarians become LIbertarians and align that party, en bloc, to
 control the outcome of major races.  If Libertarians go off and vote
 third party then those votes will have no influence on the national
 races.
 Some folks say that's okay.  I believe it's unrealistic.
