Sure there are. There are the Neocons, basically warmed-over
Trotskyists. They used to be liberal democrats. But there are a
lot of Arnold types, Socially-liberal (really, libertarian) fun guys
but economically-conservative. The gummit has no more right to
intefere with your private life that it does with your economic one.

Richard Nixon had to make a devil's deal with the social
conservatives to get elected in '68. A lot of these people your
average Republican would not have let in the house, though they do
make great huntin' and drinkin' buddies<G>.
The Repubs have had to throw them the occasional bone ever
since. The social conservatives _real_ issue is abortion. But if
the Repubs give them that, then they alienate the "suburban mom"
swing vote. So the Repugs make do with platitudes and the War on
Drugs while screwing the "Reagan Democrats" economically. Serves 'em
right..
