Rothbard's conclusion on Konkin's value

"And yet, Konkin’s writings are to be welcomed.  Because we need a lot more polycentrism in the movement.  Because he shakes up Partyarchs who tend to fall into unthinking complacency. And especially because he cares deeply about liberty and can read and write, qualities which seem to be going out of style in the libertarian movement.  At least we can count on Sam Konkin not to join the mindless cretins in the Clark TV commercials singing about “A New Beginning, Amer-i-ca.”  And that’s worth a lot."

Murray Rothbard
