Will Pence Prove Positive for the Republicans?

I begin this post with a question. Why did Republicans lose the election? There are may underlying answers that can be gleamed from endless exit polls. I believe a major answer is leadership, or the lack thereof. I think the results of last week's election was as much an indictment of non-Conservative leadership as anything else. Republicans lost their sense of fiscal responsibility and spent like no Democrat before them. I think people became fed up with the growth of government especially at the hands of the Republicans. Now I think a course correction is needed and obtainable. We must have principled, dedicated, Reagan-Conservative leaders in congress. A popular name being tossed around is congressman Mike Pence of Indiana. I certainly think the congressman would be an excellent choice for any leadership post. He is one of the dedicated Conservatives in the House of Representatives and a rising star in the Republican party. It is going to take people like Mike Pence and others to lead the way Reagan would. There is no time like the present to return to conservatism so we can take back control in 2008 before the Democrats get too comfortable.

I agree. With the way the Republicans spent money people could not see a difference between the Democrats and the Republicans.
We need another type of a "contract with America". State what we stand for and stick to it, NO MATTER WHAT.
