Seems more and more people are getting tired of the status quo:

Polls show that fewer Americans are calling themselves Republicans or Democrats and the number of Americans unaffiliated with either party has reached an all-time high — good news for Libertarians, say officials of the nation’s third-largest party.

The Libertarian Party has had an 18 percent increase in membership since January, said Shane Cory, executive director of the Libertarian National Committee.

More Americans are joining the Libertarian Party because they are “disillusioned with typical party politics and are looking for a change,” Mr. Cory said.

With news like this, hopefully we will see the Republicans and conservative Democrats move more towards a libertarian philosophy, and actually act on it.  Or better yet, see the Libertarian party gain a seat or three in Congress.  That would motivate everyone.
