NOTE: This is a brief exerpt from a AZCapitol Times article interview with Emily Bittner, Arizona Democrat spokesperson about their mission to gain control of the state legislature with victories in the upcoming election. This is a call to arms...every Republican should be doing their part to register Republicans to vote!
"Democrats, however, believe they can capitalize on gains made in 2006 and become the majority party in the House.
“We only have to pick up four (seats),” Bittner said.
District 3, which encompasses the state’s western border, is among the targets for Democrats. Pamela Durbin from Lake Havasu City is the only Democrat candidate in the district. She and the party hope to unseat conservative Republican Rep. Trish Groe, who was arrested and convicted last year of driving drunk."

Townhall.com - Differences Between Conservatives and Liberals
I found this great article on Townhall.com...it's worth reading and passing along. Here is a sample:
"5) Conservatives, but not necessarily Republicans (which is unfortunate), believe it's vitally important to the future of the country to reduce the size of government, keep taxes low, balance the budget, and get this country out of debt. Liberals, and Democrats for that matter, believe in big government, high taxes, and they have never met a new spending program they didn't like, whether we will have to go into debt to pay for it or not.
4) Conservatives believe that government, by its very nature, tends to be inefficient, incompetent, wasteful, and power hungry. That's why we believe that the government that governs least, governs best. Liberals think that the solution to every problem is another government program. Even when those new programs create new problems, often worse than the ones that were being fixed in the first place, the solution is always....you guessed it, another government program."
