I almost dislike big government conservatism (to me an oxymoron) as much as I dislike big government liberalism. If a third party was viable, I'd be in, but it's not. So now we have to try to steer the Republicans back to a more conservative, smaller government approach.
If you seriously think the Republican Party isn't for big government, you need to get your head examined. The only true "small government" parties are the Libertarian and Constitution parties.
