Far too often people mix "Libertarian" with "Conservative" and that is equivalent to mixing "Jew" with "Fascist" in word terms.
Nowadays, Conservatives only favor civil liberties such as the second amendment when it is in their favor. They want to extend the drug war, keep gays suppressed, block religious freedom, etc, which we know is not in OUR favor.
I don't know how Libertarians got mixed with Conservatives the way Progressives became synonymous with Liberal, but let me make this clear:
We disagree with Liberals as much as we disagree with Conservatives. I guess it just seems that Conservatives are more willing to hear our ideas (generally).
tl;dr Romney would've been just as bad as Obama is now.
