My Record Is, Far As

We Hoosiers Hold To Some Quaint Notions. Some Might Say We 'cling' To Them, Though Not Out Of Fear Or Ignorance. We Believe In Paying Our Bills. We Have Kept Our State In The Black Throughout The Recent Unpleasantness, While Cutting Rather Than Raising Taxes, By Practicing An Old Tribal Ritual - We Spend Less Money Than We Take In.

We Believe That Government Works For The Benefit Of Private Life, And Not The Other Way Around.

Among The Weeds Choking Out Growth And Good Government Are The Hundreds Of Boards, Commissions, And Advisory Committees That Have Sprouted Over The Years. They Devour Time, Money, And Energy Far Beyond Any Real Contribution They Make.

If Our Nation Goes Over A Financial Niagara, We Won't Have Much Strength And, Eventually, We Won't Have Peace. We Are Currently Borrowing The Entire Defense Budget From Foreign Investors. Within A Few Years, We Will Be Spending More On Interest Payments Than On National Security. That Is Not, As Our Military Friends Say, A 'robust Strategy.'

My Record Is, Far As I Know, Unimpeachable.
