It may be just the way my twisted mind works, but those numbers make
total sense to me. Those who are Republicans with a clue are realizing
what kind of nasty stuff is going down. They also realize they've
belonged to a party that can be vindictive. Why change to being
Libertarian and be, like the Russians say "the nail that gets hammered
down?" If you are Unaffiliated, you are to some degree anonymous, and
you can vote any way you want without anyone knowing for sure.
If you are a Democrat, you are beginning to realize that your party
doesn't have the first idea of how to stop the snowballing loss of
liberty, they're too busy taking potshots at each other. You aren't
about to become a Republican, and you really, really, are convinced they
are doing evil things and will be watching everyone. So, you go
unaffiliated.
There's real potential here. I believe instead of trying to convince
folks to be Libertarians because they have the answers, we should be
telling people, "We don't care what party you
are from. If you care about Liberty, vote for us". Let the natural
process which (I believe) is already underway, bring you votes, and you
don't have to be sure they are "purists."
