Small government is an easy slogan without having making the hard choices.
And the few choices I have seen expressed by Tea Party candidates certainty dont reflect a majority opinion - dismantle EPA, privatize Social Security, unemployment insurance is unconstitutional, end all earmarks (pennies on the budget dollar), etc.
And, not one has explained how supporting an extension of the Bush tax cuts for the top bracket will not result in significant loss of revenue ($4 trillion over 10 years) and growing debt.
