Jorgensen said "I used to tell people the Libertarian Party is the best of both sides. We take the economic freedoms from the right and the social freedoms from the left. I can't even say that anymore because Republicans aren't acting like Republicans and Democrats aren't acting like Democrats."

I agree the left offers more spectrum, having taken over most of the airwaves, media and academia. I am still partial to Caplan's Simplistic Theory of Left and Right, which says the right is defined by opposition to the left. Yudkowsky offers his take in a delightful parable.
