7. Nice post. They endorse about anyone who shouts "NO" to everything but tax cuts.
"Hulburd would extend most Bush tax cuts at least through 2012, and make capital-gains tax cuts and the elimination of the estate tax permanent. Quayle would simply make all the cuts permanent. Quayle is an unequivocal "no" to the Obama health-care plan, prepared to defund its key provisions. Hulburd won't say how he would have voted on the bill had he been in Congress, and much of his discussion about the bill with The Republic's Editorial Board focused on how it affects Phoenix Children's Hospital (where he is a board member) not consumers.

On immigration Hulburd - a rare Democrat who says he supports Senate Bill 1070 - calls for gaining operational control of the border. After that? He won't say what he would like to see happen. Quayle is to the point. Secure the border. Stop drug cartels. Focus on workplace enforcement."
