Sharing Our Conservative Ideas

We can take our nation back in 2010. As evident by big wins in New Jersey, Virginia, and Massachusetts and public polls showing President Obama’s popularity dropping like a rock, we know that American taxpayers are sick and tired of extreme spending and debt. But while everyone is fed up with the Democrat’s irresponsibility, we cannot win unless we start promoting conservative ideas and alternatives.

I was proud to serve with my former colleague Lee Atwater as a consultant to Bunning’s 1986 congressional campaign. He’s retiring after this session, opening up his seat to another Kentuckian motivated to serve their state and country. But, he’s not going quietly.
