I want common-sense conservatism.

I want a Republican who understands that cutting federal spending and not raising taxes is key – like McCain. Earmarks should be a thing of the past – if a Senator or representative wants a project for his state or district, then it should be its own legislation, let it be discussed on its merits.

I want a Republican who understands that business AND labor are what drive the economy and a standard of living envied and imitated across the world.

I want a Republican who understands that a broad tax base with low rates is key to prosperity.

I want a Republican who understands that life is sacrosanct – at the beginning and at the end.

I want a Republican who understands love and Marriage crosses many boundaries – but that it doesn’t cross the establishment clause.

I want a Republican that understands that corruption will not be tolerated in government.

I want a Republican that will support the Democrats when it is right and oppose them when it is wrong, not sell their vote for dubious advantage.

I want a Republican who will stand for their heartfelt principles, even if I don’t necessarily agree.

Heck, I want a Democrat who will do the same things!
