A Glenn Beck, Ron Paul type of Republican

Libertarian Republican Josiah Schmidt at Rightosphere reports the following on Mike Lee, now the faraway favorite to be the next US Senator from Utah:

What we have to look forward to: Mike Lee is a self-described libertarian conservative and constitutionalist who is dedicated to ending deficit spending, cutting government regulations, mandating 12-year term limits on Congressmen, overhauling entitlements (the biggest budget item, and the one no one wants to touch), and move from an income tax system to a flat tax or Fair Tax (so that one group of people can't vote higher taxes on another group of people). Lee will also refuse to vote for any bailouts.

And this note from a poster to Ron Paul Forums:

Mike Lee is statistically probably the most likely Ron Paul libertarian to make it into the Senate this year, other than Rand Paul.

In late April Lee was a guest on Glenn Beck's radio show.

He told Beck that the Constitution is "the law of the land," and is what "protects our liberty."
