Conservatives like you and I are conservative by nature. We tend to take folks at their word and work too hard to come home and make sure we're really being represented in Washington DC.
If Gene Taylor tells us he's a Conservative, why shouldn't we believe him, right? This website takes a deeper look at Gene Taylor's record. You may be surprised at what you'll find here.
We live in one of the most conservative districts in America. We've had the opportunity in the past to elect a good Christian Conservative that will fight for limited government, a strong national defense, fiscal responsibility, and conservative family values - without the liberal representation Gene Taylor has given us.
Furthermore, Gene Taylor has been in Congress for 20 years. He should have seen the recent socialist legislation coming down the pipeline and fought against it. Instead, he has given his support to the most liberal Congress members that are trying to shove this legislation through.
Gene Taylor supports the most liberal members of Congress. Does this represent you?
Gene Taylor elected Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House. That puts her 3rd in line to be our President.
Gene Taylor votes with Nancy Pelosi 69% of the time.
Gene Taylor elected Barney Frank as Chairman of the Financial Services committee, even after the failure and bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac cost taxpayers billions and billions of dollars.
Gene Taylor votes with Barney Frank 81% of the time.
Gene Taylor was given the chance to investigate Charlie Rangel for tax evasion and remove him from his powerful position as Chairman of the House Ways and Means committee, Gene Taylor sided with the rest of the Democrats and voted NOT to investigate Charlie Rangel.
Gene Taylor votes with Charlie Rangel 83% of the time.
He has served 20 years as our Representative and currently earns $174,000 per year. What do we get for the money we pay him?
He has sponsored only 28 Bills in his Congressional career.
He could only muster enough support to get 11 Bills out of committee and only 5 of those Bills were passed into law.
The purpose of each of those 5 Bills was to change the name of a Federal building or to award a Congressional Medal of Honor.
On average, Gene Taylor speaks on the House floor 5 times per year. Other members of Congress average 50, 100, even 200 times per year.
Congressional watchdog groups agree, Gene Taylor is for a bigger, broader Federal Government.
According to GovTrack.us, Gene Taylor is a Follower, not a Leader. It's interesting to see the long list of far-left liberal members of Congress he follows.
National Taxpayers Union scores Gene Taylor a 20% out of 100%. They graded him a "F", labeling him as a "Big Spender". Other conservatives, such as Jim Demint, scored as high 96%.
American Conservative Union scores Gene Taylor a 24 out of 100, which ranks him with the other liberal Democrats. Other conservatives, such as Michele Bachmann scored as high as a perfect 100%.

I wonder if he’s still going to run for 2010… haven’t heard much from him lately.
I haven’t seen where he’s officially thrown his hat in, but his website changed from “exploratory committee” to a campaign site and states,”I am proud to be a native Mississippian and running again for the United States House of Representatives.”
No doubt he’ll have to work a lot harder in 2010 than he did in 2008 if he plans on beating Gene Taylor and his bigshot campaign financiers.
Hopefully Joe and John will hold a debate soon to earn the Republican party nomination. I’d even like to see a roundtable debate/discussion held between Joe, John, and candidates from other parties such as the Libertarian and Constitution Party.
I’m not sure what the rules and regulations of such an event would allow, but then, it’s rules and regulations that keep people in power – in power. Maybe the candidates can do this without party permission. I don’t know – just an idea… any thoughts?
McKay seems like a descent guy, but he had his chance in ‘08. I think its Joe’s turn. As a matter of fact, there are 13 people viewing his site right now.
I would hope that these gentleman agree to support the primary winner and make a public commitment to devote the time to beat Gene and not make another mockery of the election. If a candidate cannot devote the major portion of his time for the next year, they should reconsider running and throw the support to those that will run. If the Libertarian party is serious about winning, then run as a republican as Ron and Ryan Paul and the other Libertarians do to win. A third party will not win; that is just fact.
