Can Rand Paul Make a Difference?

I have been examining if the new "Tea Party" supported candidates will make a Conscience Conservative difference once they enter office.  I looked first at Nikki Haley, Governor-elect of South Carolina, and determined that she appears as much a Unconscious Conservative or Liberal as she does a Conscious Conservative.  Then I examined Wisconsin's Senator-elect, Ron Johnson and found that he appears to be a Conscious Conservative with some unconscious conservative leanings.  Last time, I looked at Marco Rubio and determined that he was an Unconscious Conservative with some Conscious Conservative tendencies.

I think it's time to examine Senator-elect Rand Paul of Kentucky.



Stance:

Oppose Federal Bailouts                                                  Conscious Conservative

Restore Personal Liberty                                                  Conscious Conservative

Examine Defense Spending                                               Conscious Conservative

Term Limits                                                                      Unconscious Conservative

Re-Establish Sovereignty                                                  Conscious Conservative

Rand Paul appears to be an Conscious Conservative with slight Unconscious Conservative leanings.  Depending on which alliances he has in the Senate, he may help make a Conscious Conservative difference.

Is Senator-elect Marco Rubio a Conscious Conservative?

 I have been examining if the new "Tea Party" supported candidates will make a Conscience Conservative difference once they enter office.  I looked first at Nikki Haley, Governor-elect of South Carolina, and determined that she appears as much a Unconscious Conservative or Liberal as she does a Conscious Conservative.  Then I examined Wisconsin's Senator-elect, Ron Johnson and found that he appears to be a Conscious Conservative with some unconscious conservative leanings

I now look at Florida's Senator-elect, Marco Rubio to see how he stacks up as a Conscious Conservative.



Stance:

Reducing Federal Government/Cutting Spending                Conscious Conservative

Balanced Budget Amendment                                           Unconscious Conservative

Repeal Government Health Care                                       Conscious Conservative

Strong Foreign Intervention/Support Israel                          Unconscious Conservative

Modify Federal Education Mandates                                 Unconscious Conservative

Marco Rubio appears to be an Unconscious Conservative with some Conscious Conservative leanings.  Depending on which alliances he has in the Senate, he may help make a Conscious Conservative difference.
