Low spending? Low deficits? Balanced budgets?
Or don't those things matter?

Interestingly a supply sider would say those are results, rather than methods. Low regulation allows for a much smaller government and hence low spending. Low deficits are a natural result of trying to keep a stable currency since high debt loads cause inflation. Balanced budgets, see low deficits. Finally in a high real growth environment it is easy to raise tax revenue, reduce social services payouts, all while dropping tax rates. That makes it a lot easier to balance the budget.
But you don't start out trying to balance the budget as some sort of holy grail. Otherwise you would just take the Democrat idea of massive heavy tax burdens to pay off the debt.
