21. the Old Wild West
as it was considered in the 1800's, you know, not just the Coastal states, but the Big Sky, Border and Rocky Mt. states, a lot of states that Repugs like to call the "heart-land" are having a little Libertarian revolt against Washington's GOP.

Is it just me or did a lot of us progressives start to develop a libertarian streak in reaction to Bush?. Aren't a lot of our arguments against his overstepping executive authority taking the tone of Libertarian arguments? And is it helping us build bridges with Libertarians in the Big Sky and Rocky Mt. states.
