Yeah, it doesn't really work. Like I said, I was straining and that was the best I could come up with based on libertarians I've known.

However, I'd offer that Republican and Democrat shouldn't have the right/left connotations that they currently have, but rather that we've made these associations based on the fact that most Republicans are right-wing and most Democrats are left-wing. The words would have more precision if history offered us more variety (like it recently has .)
