Founded in 1991, the Republican Liberty Caucus works to advance the principles of limited government, free markets and individual liberty within the Republican Party.

According to The National Review, there is some good news in Alaska: The Republican Liberty Caucus endorsed candidate for U.S. Senate, David Cuddy, is gaining ground as a result of the legal and ethical troubles facing incumbent Ted Stevens. According to the paper:

David Cuddy, the more conservative of the two, is now talked about as the favorite for the nomination. He described the Alaska Senate contest as a defining moment for the GOP. ‘This is a key race to figure out whether the Republicans really get it after our losses in 2006,’ he told National Review Online. ‘Everybody looks at Ted Stevens as a poster-boy for overspending and raiding Social Security. If the national party continues to support him with the indictments, it will be a sign that no lesson was learned.’

A former state legislator and banker who challenged Stevens unsuccessfully in 1996, Cuddy describes himself as a pro-lifer and a libertarian-leaning conservative — not dissimilar to Ron Paul except for his more moderate approach to the Iraq war. ‘We have to stop acting as the world’s policeman, but we can’t just leave there overnight,’ Cuddy said.”

Please do what you can to support Dave Cuddy.

    [...] I have also previously blogged about how David Cuddy deserves your support in the Alaska race against Ted Stevens. Stevens is becoming desperate, stating recently, “I can’t remember a time in these 40 years that I ever refused to see an Alaskan or try to solve the problems they brought to me. I’ve got one major problem now, and that is to be reelected. So I would ask each of you to stand with me now.” [...]
