In the comments on a prior post jamesk suggest blue states and red states could pair off to do proportional representation of U.S. Representatives. It's a lovely idea, and wholly constitutionally acceptable. But, I noted, the blues and reds won't do it because it would help the greens. And, I added, "the libertarians, whatever color they are."
Libertarians ought to be green, perhaps, the color of money, but that's already taken. So here's my new poll: what color should the libertarians be?

Grey doesn't work because Libertarians aren't uptight enough to lack a sense of humor.
Gold is a precious metal and there are precious few Libertarians out there
Rainbow is already taken and far too flashy
White - well that would be the majority of Libertarians so I guess that outta work.
Any f^@%ing color they want to be. They're Libertarians!
I voted for rainbow, but not for the gay rights angle.
Since any group of libertarians will have vast array of different poinions about different issues, a rainbow seems like the the perfect symbol.
If it wasn't for the unformtunate historical connotations, I would go with black, simply because it stands out.

I would vote pink, and not for the reason which first springs to mind. Pink is for the rosy frame through which they view capitalism.

Thanks for the comment. I'm sorry I didn't have pink as one of the choices. I was teaching survey research to my methods class yesterday and pointing out that survey software like this creates certain limits to volunteered answers.
