has been handed the opportunity to take this nation back its core values. This can easily be lost if we allow people such as Rush Limbaugh and Pat Robertson to define us. We need to realize that we will not agree on 100% of the issues and no single issue can been used as a 'litmus test.'

We need leaders like Bobby Jindahl, Mitt Romney, Marco Rubio and Scott Brown. To be effective, we need Reagan's 'big tent.' The United States is a center-right country. We are rejecting the neo-marxism of the present leaders just as we rejected the neocons before them.

As we are proving in Haiti, the American people are incredibly generous and compassionate. Only if we show the same compassion and respect to each other can we effectively pull together.

Scott Brown's acceptance speech set a wonderful tone for going forward. His campaign was clean and positive. Let's learn from our winners and not go back into the mud just because those are the tactics used by far too many in the present leadership of the current party in power. Look where it's gotten them.
