Liberals wanted governments to be based on written constitutions and separation of powers, and Conservative ideas also appealed to peasants, who wanted to perserve traditional ways. Contrary to popular expectations, liberal and conservative ideas are not "symmetrical" in nature. Modern liberalism is economically centrist, arguing for an economic meritocracy and social liberalism, a balance of allowing for differing lifestyles while still maintaining conservative functions of gov't (good sized army, etc.). However, "liberals" have increasingly drifted to the right, as seen in Barack Obama's bank bailouts (redistribution to the rich) as well as Justin Trundeau's reluctant support for the Keystone XL pipeline (pro-business over environmentalist).

there was a considerable conservative electoral base in the U.S.
The moral majority has described itself as a political organization with religious goals. The moral majority is comprised of conservative, fundamentalist Christians that have the same political views.
Unfortunately, the Libertarian party did not have a clear set of goals for the 2004 election. The main objective was to simply raise party awareness. Many people confuse libertarians with liberals, the green party, or Ralph Nader. For the 2004 election, the Libertarian Party tried to define who they are, what they stand for, and how they differ from other political affiliations. The party however is still not organized enough to really get their message out.
