My recent post on the likely need for a renewed libertarian-conservative political alliance has drawn numerous comments and some commentary on other blogs. Interested readers might want to check out the Volokh Conspiracy's earlier extended discussion of "fusionism" (as the libertarian-conservative coalition was traditionally known) back in 2006. See this post I wrote on "Libertarians and Conservatives" and other posts by Jonathan Adler, Todd Zywicki, and myself chained to it.

I may have more to say on the possibilities of fusionism in the post-Bush/Obama era in later posts. Stay tuned!
