Attention Mr. President: Here is How to be a fiscally Responsible Democrat

Deeds pledges to walk tight fiscal line - Washington Times

Fiscal conservatism for Virginia has been a sound course that must be maintained at time when the state is grappling with pockets of double-digit unemployment and the federal debt is ballooning, said Democrat R. Creigh Deeds.
The Democratic gubernatorial candidate told The Washington Times in an interview that Virginia's attitude toward business and the requirement to keep the budget balanced have put the state in a comparatively good position. At the same time, he said, he sees improving education and transportation infrastructure and not job creation as the state's primary role in helping fuel prosperity.
"I think it's paid off for us to be fiscally conservative and frugal, a relatively low-service state. It is part of the reason why we continue to be named the best state for business in the country," Mr. Deeds said Saturday while driving between campaign stops in Bedford and Roanoke.
