Liberal still has positive value around the world. The American revolution was the only great liberal revolution. Liberal education, liberal economic reforms these are still meaningful phrases. Libertarian is too long and awkward of a word to use as a good label.

But, just as you claim the LP has tarnished the label libertarian... the same could be said for socialists tainting the word liberal. So either way we're going to have to do some branding work. With that in mind, I would rather just stick with libertarian. I think libertarianism is actually spreading and I see a lot more folks shifting in that direction as of late. Can we not work on the word libertarian instead? Interesting. But, just as you claim the LP has tarnished the label libertarian… the same could be said for socialists tainting the word liberal.
