I honestly think the real "values" that the RNC wants in their leadership are easily corrupted, spineless sellouts who will screw the interests of all to further the politcal/economic interests of the few. It starts at the local level and continues up through sate and national office. Only the best of the worst makes it to Washington, DC.
