crat voters. Rosenkranz further notes that many of those 117 are
far to the left of the national Democratic Party. Even this figure,
however, does not adequately capture the scarcity of conservatives on law school campuses. By distinguishing simply between
Democrats and Republicans, Rosenkranz treats libertarianism
and conservatism as congruent ideologies. But when it comes to
the legal issues that most divide the left from the right, libertarians and conservatives agree on very little. Many libertarian law
professors have argued, for example, that the original meaning
of the Constitution supports socially progressive causes, such as
same-sex marriage, open borders, and abortion.
Few libertarians as there are in the legal academy, there are
significantly fewer social and cultural conservatives. In his article
discussing Georgetown Law's skewed ideological makeup,
Rosenkranz, who in 2016 supported Jeb Bush in the Republican
primaries before joining Rubio's team as a senior legal adviser,
assured readers that he supports gay rights. It is noteworthy that
the other two non-Democrats at Georgetown Law are Randy
Barnett, a socially progressive libertarian, and David Hyman, a
JD/MD who appears to be conservative principally for reasons
related to healthcare and tort reform. All three are eminent scholars whose views diverge from academic orthodoxy, but they are
not conservative in the traditional sense.
The distinction between libertarians and traditionalist conservatives eludes most of the research on the LCM. As a result, scholars
wildly overstate the extent of the conservative counterrevolution.
Few studies of the LCM even discuss "fusionism," Frank Meyer's
influential attempt to seek common ground between libertarianism and traditionalist conservatism without denying the tensions
between them. And the few who do mention fusionism do so only
