Republicans won a landslide victory in November, because our message was conservative and it was clear: we believe in freedom from excessive government and freedom from excessive taxes; we believe freedom best promotes widespread prosperity.
If we are to deliver on our promises, we must now insistently stick to our principles. We must insist those just elected remain loyal to our party’s principles. No backsliding.
Going forward towards 2012, we must support candidates for every office who not only espouse freedom, but who will courageously practice it in office.
The critical moment has arrived to choose the state party chairman, the person who will shape the party and policy for the next two years.
I endorse Jack Kimball, because he is a clear and strong advocate for the conservative principles that gave us a sweeping victory just two months ago. When he speaks passionately of freedom, he means what he says. Jack Kimball will give us a party organization and a public message worthy of our principles, an organization that will restore freedom and prosperity to New Hampshire and build towards an even greater victory in 2012.
