Edward Feser over at Tech Central Station has a good article on the uneasy alliance between libertarianism and modern conservatism, and the common classically liberal roots of both.  I always find this subject fascinating.   Conservatives and libertarians share many things in common, but are subject to a rift over some significant differences. 

I still predict that the rift will never happen.  The one thing conservatives have that libertarians do not is the ability to organize.  It's almost as though it's a naturally selecting flaw in their political nature.  For that reason alone, libertarians have nowhere to go.  The conservative movement will continue to have the libertarian tag-along, and will continue to feel comfortably at home in the Republican Party for the foreseeable future.
