Hagel Meets His Match

Submitted by Douglas Reed, Jun 6, 2007 15:45

I hope Bruning campaigns on the conservative tenets of limiting government; strong national security; secure the border; keep the Bush tax cuts and the rest of the Reagan plan. Hopefully this is a start of a movement to replace RINOs with authentic Republicans. Now if we can find replacement candidates to run against Lindsey Graham, Mel Martinez, Trent Lott et al we can turn things around.
