Are you a Republican or a Democrat? I hope the answer is both.
I'm a Republican, but if it makes any difference, I'm not going to support any of the Republicans for the next governor. None of them. We need to find someone new. I don't even think we need another Democrat, I think we need a whole new party. It's become a circus.

How do you feel about the new law that you wrote for the state's public schools about dress codes?
It's fine. You can't walk in and just wear a swimsuit and nothing else. We tried to write a law that would address the concerns of parents without being too strict. Schools are still very important, but they are also a place of recreation. You have to find the balance.

How do you feel about the war in Iraq and the issue of veterans? What about the 7 billion-dollar Iraq and Afghanistan war debt?
I'm trying to find a way to get out of the war without leaving an unsafe world for our soldiers. I was against the war in the beginning, but I've had to rethink the war and how we got there. We've been there for a long time now. I don't think there's a better answer than supporting our troops and supporting our families
