NO MORE SENATORS!!!

We need to identify and elect conservative Republican governors... starting with states like AZ in 2010... and no more family dynasties.

You have a political problem there.

Theodore White referred to it in his Making of the President series.

The problem is that GOP governors have tended to be RiNO's, because they have been concerned first with running executive departments. So they think in terms of budget dollars and being able to "do more" -- and that is an inherently liberal bias. They aren't concerned with conserving society's values, but with transacting a ground-game agenda centered on, guess what, social services.

Theodore White's way of putting it was that the problems of running a state executive branch naturally inclines governors to see the "wisdom" of being liberal RiNO's and doing things the liberal, RiNO way. Which was fine with White and the rest of the termites.
