Unfortunately, if you actually want fiscal responsibility the last person you vote for is a conservative. For conservative politicians fiscal responsibility means shifting the tax burden from rich to poor and welfare receipt from poor to rich.

Yes, I've responded to this point already in my reply to FNM. Did you not read that?
