The problem that now stands in front of the conservative governor's is that they must produce a state government that creates an atmosphere that will support the small businessman, cut the spending in their states and streamline ( cut ) unneeded agencies. If they do not do this the state will go back to being democratic led because the people in the states (VA and NJ) want someone who will have the answers.
We the residence of the state of Florida had a good Governor in Jeb Bush, keeping spending low was important but holding the state legislatures feet to the fire was the thing that he did best. We now have a Governor who just wants to be popular (or so it would seem) and doesn't cut enough out of the budget, yes we will make it through the hard times but we need to cut more and plan for worse times to come whether they do or not.
