Vern McKinley Asserts His Conservatism In Interview At Miller Politics Blog

Vern McKinley was interviewed by Lee “Ben” Miller for the Miller Politics blog yesterday.

MP: “Why did you decide to challenge incumbent Frank Wolf for the Republican nomination?”

McKinley: “I observed the 2006 election and saw a ‘Big Government Republican’ and a ‘Big Government Democrat’ offered by the two major parties. There was an ‘urban legend’ in the District that Congressman Wolf was a good limited government, fiscal conservative and he perpetuated this myth. I took a Vote-Smart survey that showed I agreed with him only about 25 to 30% of the time. This led me to research his record further and everything I found out about him as well as his votes subsequent to my initial research has shown that my decision to challenge him was a good one.”
