Heroes Emerging at State Level

While we have a federal government that has abdicated its responsibilities, more recently there has been an emergence of a number "hero" governors at the state level. Chris Christie in New Jersey, has taken a state in financial shambles and has begun to bring it back to fiscal reality. With the absence of the federal government doing anything about the dangerous anarchy at our southern border, Governor Jan Brewer of Arizona has had the courage to enact state legislation to begin to deal with illegal immigration that threatens her state. Governor Cuomo of New York has begun to attack the financial crisis in that state. In New York this, in particular, takes a lot of courage. The same is true of Governor Jerry Brown of California who at least is starting to deal with the massive financial crisis in that state. Let's see if they have the guts to carry out what is necessary.

Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin has necessarily taken on the unions to deal with the financial crisis in that state. Governor John Kasich of Ohio has begun to deal with the financial crisis in his state.

The American people, for many years now, have LONGED for and have been looking for leadership to do...not what is politically correct, not what is popular...but to have the courage to do what is right. We have several leaders who are now emerging at the state level who are demonstrating the courage to do just this. They are heroes.

In spite of the biased media coverage that attempts to convey a different impression, the VAST majority of Americans support these "hero" governors and what they are attempting to accomplish.
