Separated them in my statement rather than lumping them into the 'more conservative' pot together for a reason. I know Libertarians and Tea Party members have a very different ideas about what changes are needed and why. They are also polar opposites on social reforms.

Bearing that in mind, it is impossible to find a candidate who is agreeable to both libertarians and the tea party.

I'm not able to add this one together. Want to expand upon that?

A liberal, by definition, is someone who espouses liberal views. It's not someone who changes positions at the drop of a hat to curry favor, e.g. Romney.

So Tigger's definition of liberal is:

Liberal: noun 1) everything negative Tigger can think of.

Kind of hard to discuss and debate such an irrational rationale.

No, part of the definition of a Liberal (in my mind) is someone who changes positions or points of view, PERIOD. Regardless of the reason for the change.

No, my definition of a Liberal is basically anyone who does not follow a Traditionalist path as closely as possible.

As for discussion, no problem with it. I don't actually engage in debate. There's no point in it, for the reason I pointed out in my response above.
