It seems that the Neo-Conservatives have hijacked the Republican party and are taking us down a path of limitless spending and international crises. Should fiscal conservatives and strict constitutionalist like myself bail on the Republican party and join another Conservative Party in America?
The parties that come to mind are: Reform, Libertarian, Independent Party of America, and Constitutionalist Party.
Some of these parties are more main-stream than the others.
A question to all of you Conservatives out there; Which 3rd Party would you join?

I'm not a conservative but I fully support your effort.I think also that as extremely radically the Republicans have been over the past 6-8 years,there will be extreme democratic swing to the left over the next few years.Maybe you are like me and kind of would like to see more middle ground or simply something other than radical swings.

I'm a Libertarian/Constitutionalist that usually votes Republican. Unfortunately the Dems and Repubs have hijacked our political system and have made 3rd parties politically impotant. Our founding fathers envisioned a multi-party system not a bi-party system as it is today. I think that most people just vote for the person that is most charismatic.

I think the religious right should just give back the party. I've always been liberal,but republicans were never this bad, until they were taken over.
and Libertarians are socially liberal so I don't know how many conservatives will go to their party

The Democratic party is getting more and more aware Republicans with a gag reflex every day.
Once we restore Freedom and Democracy, we can argue about how to manage Social Security , or how to regulate the American Commons, etc.
For now it is not a Conservative vs Liberal Fight, it is a Freedom Vs Totalitarianism Fight, if you don't fight for the one you help the other

i will write-in Ron Paul's call. and that i might want to urge different Ron Paul supporters to do an same as he's more effective perfect suitable for win a universal election besides because of his perspectives on pulling out of overseas wars. he will be in a position to charm to many self reliant and liberal votes his way.

You're absolutely right. That's why i've never understood why conservatives support the president when he is the opposite of what they represent. I wish there would be a Libertarian party, because that's what I would support.

until campaign finance reform takes shape doing that would just put dems in power. this is the same for a liberal who wants to vote green so both sides of the isle will not allow campaign finance reform. we are stuck until something drastic happens. there are a few out there who can bring it back but they are being drowned out.
