| Message | Look at my voting record and views, only one "convinced" and the rest are "moderate" or "leaning." There are more radicals than me that claim to be centrists. |

| Message | Whilst the ACPA supports deregulation, we believe that lowering the enumerated taxes would be folly as our government is already in deep debt. We, therefore, are forced to vote against this measure. |
