Who is the Reagan-Republican in this race. Is there a self made man, religious, conservative, etc. The type of guy who'd side with Duncan Hunter over women in combat or homosexualizing the military
While I do respect "self made" men, I don't think that is necessarily a requirement. There have been many cases of people that grew up either in wealthy or politically strong families who made good public servants themselves.
Additionally, I wouldn't tout the "self made man" description too much either. We have MANY strong conservative leaders who are missing the "Y" on their chromosomes.
from The Club for Growth Blog:
Jean Schmidt is running in a Republican primary for the seat.... Other strong contenders in this field include Pat DeWine, Tom Brinkman, and Bob McEwen.
"Jean Schmidt is a proven supporter of higher taxes. Her record in the Ohio State Legislature shows that she voted to raise the state sales tax and opposed efforts to keep property taxes down, said Club for Growth President Pat Toomey. Pat DeWine, Tom Brinkman, and Bob McEwen all have much better records and positions on the issues of taxes and spending. Any one of them would be highly preferable to Jean Schmidt.
