Libertarians should be above such petty partisanship because that's not where the focus should lie. But past feelings and perceptions are hard to get over.
So what do libertarians realistically want? A Congress that is more libertarian-minded. For example, don't do what the Senate is trying to do with the stimulus bill. But in the end, if we can get a split legislature/executive, that'll help.

The Clinton post just seemed kindof petty to me.
As for agreeing on politics, and how we rarely do it, I'm with you on this ridiculous stimulus package, tho.
EDIT: I also agree with the split legislature/executive but let's be honest. The Dems in the legislature can never get their stuff together as they splinter and bicker like children when "in power" so it's almost like having a split legislature. Whereas the GOP is really good as having a hammer and getting things done when they're in so it's why a GOP Exec/GOP Cong is about the scariest thing out there.
