Personally, here are my desired outcomes:
1. I strongly wish for a libertarian-minded Executive AND a libertarian-majority Legislature.
2. Knowing that appears to be an impossibility since too many are stuck in the narrow red/blue spectrum, the next highest desirable outcome would be to have a gridlock Executive/Legislature. Having a Democratic Executive on top of a Democratic Legislature would be the worst outcome possible (just as a Rep Exec/Leg would be as well).
3. If it was possible to have a Rep Legislature, then a Dem president would be ok (unless he/she becomes stupid about military/intelligence/security). The same holds true that if a Rep would be in Executive, then I would wish for the current Legislatures to remain.

My own bias is to see Ron Paul President, but that doesn't stop me from reading the tea leaves for Clinton, who I don't like at all.
