Boehner, Blunt have to go

We need new GOP leadership in the House. The few moderates left in the House may not agree with conservatives on every issue, but they have to grant that conservatives usually stick to their small government principles. Those principles are big-tent principles and the road back to the majority. Ryan Sager, RCP:

The GOP hasn't just allowed itself to become corrupt in the dollar-and-cents sense. It's also undergone a full-blown corruption of its ideas and ideals -- giving up on limited government and instead signing onto any scheme it thought would keep it in power.

The voters noticed. A survey by the conservative Club for Growth, taken in 15 battleground districts in the days before election, found that voters trusted the Democrats over the Republicans by a margin of 15 points to "eliminate wasteful spending." Asked which was the "party of big government," voters chose the GOP by a margin of 10 points.

And Blunt was post-election at the Heritage Foundation making the case for earmarks! How tone-deaf can he be?!!

VOTE Pence and Shadegg for real reform.


UPDATE: McCain endorses Shadegg, Redstate.
