Reston, Va.: Will the growing influence of Ron Paul move the party towards libertarianism?

David Frum: Yes, Paul has moved the GOP in a libertarian direction. But since that same tendency is weakening the GOP and strengthening the Dems, the net political effect of Ron Paul is to WEAKEN libertarianism by shifting the less statist of the 2 parties toward an unelectable extreme.

Extremism in pursuit of liberty is a serious vice.

Well, at least he's honest about hating freedom. Most of the rest of the political class are a lot less up-front about it.

Frum knows all about unelectable, since he supported Giuliani in the 2008 primary.
