Friends, we can change the Republican Caucus in the United States Senate. But we have to unite behind the real small government conservatives out there. We must get on the same page to improve our own.
Here is the list. We need these guys:
Ken Buck in Colorado Chuck DeVore in California Michael Williams in Texas Marco Rubio in Florida Rand Paul in Kentucky Pat Toomey in Pennsylvania Danny Tarkanian in Nevada Marlin Stutzman in Indiana Mike Lee in Utah
And if we can, I say we go with Ovide LaMontagne in New Hampshire and Christine O’Donnell in Delaware. Let’s go all and all in for small government conservatives. This year is our last best chance in a long time to get a slate of solid conservatives.
