Guess you found someone, libertarian is my closest "affiliation". Hate the insane spending, and although I'm not all that socially liberal, I prefer to let people do what they want, as long as they don't hurt others. Give me Ron Paul. Too bad people like him will never be elected, because the population is so one-sided now, you have to be full on republican or democrat. No republican who says abortion is acceptable sometimes, or gay marriage, but wants to cut taxes and spending by a massive 50% will even get elected. I think people care more about those type of social issues than anything these days, they should be far less important imho.

I would prefer Ron Paul, but Rand is a better option in my mind than most. And I like that he's more or less just playing the game - running under the republican ticket despite not really being a republican.
