True, I would consider libertarianism and the current right wing separate.

A lot of libertarians have a tough choice deciding whom to vote for, and actually think of particular candidates and stances, with different votes in different elections, rather than mindlessly vote for the left or right wing like sheep.

Actually, I think there would be a lot more libertarians around, if not for the two-party system and people's conformist tendencies to gradually adopt the views of the party they associate with, even if their original stance used to be different.

I doubt anything short of the skies collapsing would ever convince you to vote for the right wing.

Would it?

It depends what you mean.

Do you mean are there conservatives I would vote for? I have - in every election in which I've been eligible to vote.

Or, should we just be looking at the American spectrum? And what counts as 'right' in that spectrum? Are there Conservative democrats I might vote for? Are there (moderate) Republicans I might vote for?

Sure.

Would I likely ever vote for any of the extreme right of the American spectrum? The Michele Bachmann's of the world? Probably not.

Fascism is commonly but improperly regarded as "right wing."

The correct scale has total government control of society at the far left and anarchy at the far right.

It's nice to know that NSG doesn't categorize me as either left or right. Moderate is exactly where I want to be. Of course, moderate is defined as "using common sense and sound information in making decisions about individual issues."
