In fairness I haven't had a chance to really check out his website properly, but his view that neither drugs or prostitution should be legalised doesn't strike me as particularly libertarian. He certainly seems more enlightened than your average US politican, but then that's using a pretty low standard. He does come across as much more intelligent than the Press ever gave him credit for.
