It doesn’t matter where he is today

Cool. Then I'll be sure to accept none of your Precious' flipflops which will be coming fast and furious when she runs.

Let me slap some actual facts your way to show you what they are. You seem to have trouble constructing them in arguments.

I will admit that once in 1978 during a 1st grade argument I was able to defend my position with your method of "I know you are but what am I", so I see how enticing it is to use.

In 2008, Congressman Pence voted for the Recovery Rebates and Economic Stimulus for the American People Act, the Bush stimulus costing taxpayers $152 billion. In July of 2009, Pence voted for $192 billion in additional federal stimulus spending.

The Cato Institute graded Pence at 61% on free trade issues in 2002. Pence was graded a “C” by the Club for Growth in 2004. In 2006, Pence scored just 63 out of 100 on economic issues and 67 of 100 on social issues in the Republican Liberty Caucus “Liberty Index,” which has rated members of Congress on key liberty votes since 1992.

His stance on illegal immigration is equally pathetic and pandering to the farmers lobbies who want nickle a day workers. From his own website:

Our plan begins with border reinforcement. The millions who come to our country seeking jobs to support their families are not a security threat to our nation, but the weaknesses in the nearly 7,000 miles of international border and 95,000 miles of shoreline have given terrorists, drug dealers and human traffickers an opening that is being exploited; this is a risk we cannot allow to continue. Part two of our plan is a temporary-worker program that is essential in order to fill jobs in our economy that are in high demand.

Illegal immigrants are a security threat. The prosperity of our own citizens having jobs should have been Pences default concern as a Conservative. Instead he was hanging out with RINO central, Kay Baily Loser.
