LONG ENDORSES RUBIO
Calls on Fellow Candidates to do Likewise
Conservative Republican candidate for U.S. Congress, District 8, Todd Long announced his formal endorsement of Marco Rubio today and called upon all of his fellow primary challengers to do the same. “Marco appeared on my radio show The Conservative Comeback several times and I have been supporting his campaign from the outset,” said Long. “We both share the same vision and values of our Founders and Reagan. Marco is a true warrior who will fight for solutions based on these values.”
“I wrote in my book, The Conservative Comeback, that the Rubio vs. Crist race would be the first important battle for the soul of the Republican Party. I call on my fellow primary challengers to endorse Rubio to ensure that solution-oriented conservatism is alive and well in the U.S. Senate,” Long added.

THE MIRACLE IN MASS.
Candidate Todd Long Congratulates Scott Brown

Orlando — Last night, State Senator Scott Brown became the first Republican in a generation to win the Massachusetts U.S. Senate seat once held by Ted Kennedy. Brown’s victory over State Attorney General Martha Coakley is disquieting news for the Democratic leadership on Capitol Hill. According to Republican candidate for Congress Todd Long, this could be a sign of bigger things to come for the conservative movement.
“Brown’s amazing victory last night in Massachusetts, together with the Republican victories in New Jersey and Virginia, are proof that independents are not in favor of the Democrats’ healthcare bill, their-out-of-control spending, the cap-and-trade bill or terrorists being treated as citizens with constitutional protections. Independents want low taxes, fiscal responsibility, an energy policy using all of our resources, an end to illegal immigration and an effective government that solves problems, not creates them,” said Todd Long.

Long added, “The majority of Americans desire what the Todd Long campaign is fighting for: which is a return to our Founders’ vision of a free people with a thriving private-sector economy, states’ rights, and a very limited, effective federal government that does a few things well. The key for America now is to continue to replace these self-serving career politicians with statesmen who will truly honor our Constitution.”

Listen to Bud’s interview with Todd!

I believe that we must immediately begin to honor our Constitution and states’ rights, and return to a federal government that does only a very few things and does them well. This includes funding the greatest military in the world, taking excellent care of our heroic soldiers and veterans, securing our borders, and providing an effective national energy policy.
Our federal government has no authority and was not intended to create and run welfare and redistribution of wealth programs. I believe we should tend to the poor and disabled. However, these programs and services need to be paid for and administered by charities, churches,synagogues, non-profits and state and local governments, where they are run most efficiently and effectively without bankrupting the nation and destroying our children’s freedom and opportunity for prosperity.
In The Conservative Comeback, we set forth a very specific 12-Point Plan to balance our budgets and greatly reduce the size of our federal government.

Attorney and talk radio host Todd Long won big in the congressional primary to take on U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Orlando, with Tea Party activist Patricia Sullivan of Lake County in not-so-close second place.
