Howard J. Phillips, Stalwart Conservative, Dies at 72

The cause was temporal frontal lobe dementia, his sister, Susan Phillips Bari, said.

Along with Richard Viguerie, Paul Weyrich, Terry Dolan and others, Mr. Phillips was a leader of the New Right, a movement that gave more clout to the right wing of the Republican Party in the 1970s and ’80s, much as the Tea Party has in recent years.

Even among stalwart conservatives, Mr. Phillips was known for being especially devoted to the ideological principles of the right, including limited government, traditional family values, strong national defense and opposition to abortion.

“He was our true north,” Mr. Viguerie, famed for pioneering the political use of direct mail, said in an interview on Monday. “You could compromise on strategy, but on principle Howie was unswerving.”

Mr. Phillips’s integrity as a conservative was on display in President Richard M. Nixon’s administration. In early 1973, the president signaled his intention to withhold financing from the Office of Economic Opportunity, an antipoverty agency with roots in President Lyndon B. Johnson’s war on poverty. The president named Mr. Phillips acting director and charged him with dismantling it.

“I believe Richard Nixon epitomizes the American dream and represents all that is great in America,” Mr. Phillips said at the time.

Nixon was unable to carry out his plans, however, after Democrats successfully sued to prevent him from starving an agency that Congress had authorized. And when Nixon yielded and continued to finance Johnson’s Great Society programs, Mr. Phillips considered the president to have broken his word and resigned.

“The thing that changed him was that while he was working for O.E.O., before he became acting director, he went around the country looking at all the grantees,” Ms. Bari, his sister, said, and concluded that much of the money was supporting liberal advocacy groups.

“Not to what the taxpayers thought they were supporting,” Ms. Bari said. “That’s what radicalized him.”

In 1974, Mr. Phillips founded the Conservative Caucus, an advocacy group, based in Warrenton, Va. He stepped down as its chairman in 2011.

Mr. Phillips could be a thorn in the side of presidents, even fellow Republicans. He lobbied against President Ronald Reagan’s nomination of Sandra Day O’Connor to the Supreme Court and against the first President George Bush’s nomination of David Souter to the court, arguing that they would favor abortion rights.

“Whether he won or lost, he always said that what is right is what he was going to do,” Charles Orndorff, the administrative vice president of the Conservative Caucus, said in an interview on Monday. “His honor, as a conservative leader, meant the most to him.”

In 1990, believing that neither major party would enact the policies he favored, Mr. Phillips led the formation of the U.S. Taxpayers Party (later renamed the Constitution Party), which declares that its policies are based on the founding documents of the nation and the original intent of the founding fathers. He was its candidate for president in 1992, 1996 and 2000. His best showing was in 1996, when he received one-fifth of 1 percent of the vote.

Howard Jay Phillips was born in Boston on Feb. 3, 1941, and grew up in nearby Brighton, Mass. His father, Frederick, ran an insurance agency; his mother, the former Gertrude Goldberg, was a homemaker. Though he was raised Jewish, he became a Christian in the 1970s. He was present at the 1960 conference at the home of William F. Buckley Jr. in Sharon, Conn., that created the conservative organization Young Americans for Freedom. Mr. Phillips graduated from Harvard in 1962.

In the mid-1960s he was chairman of the Boston Republican Committee, and in 1968 he managed the Senate campaign of Richard S. Schweiker, a Pennsylvania Republican congressman who unseated Senator Joseph S. Clark, a Democrat. Mr. Phillips worked in several positions in the Nixon administration before landing at the Office of Economic Opportunity.

Somewhat quixotically, he sought the Democratic nomination for senator from Massachusetts in 1978 in order to oppose the Republican incumbent, Edward W. Brooke III, a defender of Great Society programs. Mr. Phillips lost in a primary to Paul Tsongas, who went on to defeat Senator Brooke.

In addition to his sister, Mr. Phillips is survived by his wife, the former Margaret Blanchard, whom he married in 1964; three sons, Douglas, Bradford and Samuel; three daughters, Elizabeth Lants (known by her middle name, Amanda), Alexandra and Jennifer; and 18 grandchildren.

On Monday, Mr. Viguerie recalled the occasional derision that he and Mr. Phillips endured for their political ardor.

“He and I did an interview with Dan Rather at the G.O.P. convention in 1984, and Rather asked us about George H. W. Bush, and we were very critical of his conservative credentials,” Mr. Viguerie said. “And the next night, Rather had Bush on, and he said, ‘Richard Viguerie and Howard Phillips say you’re not a conservative. Well, Mr. Vice President, what about it? Are you a conservative?’

“And he said, ‘Yes, Dan, I’m a conservative, but I’m not a nut about it.’ ”

Nationally, Brewer's star shines as a conservative icon

She travels coast to coast to rally the conservative faithful, packing in Republicans by the thousands and winning standing ovations -- sometimes simply by entering the room.

With her no-nonsense and feisty style, Gov. Jan Brewer has stormed America, taking her messages of states' rights and border security to the national stage.

Along the way, the 69-year-old Glendale politico has become a national figure who travels like a rock star, complete with an advance team that carries a black marker for her to use to sign autographs.

She wields political power and can raise hundreds of thousands of dollars that she is using to try to make or break candidates and influence elections.

Ultimately, it's unclear what Brewer plans to do with her star power: No one seems to know her endgame.

For now, she tours to promote her book, "Scorpions for Breakfast." Through speaking engagements, she has raised nearly $600,000 for a federal political-action committee that she's using to pump money into Republican races in this cycle. She has become a fixture on the cable-TV news shows -- despite cringe-worthy bloopers that keep satirical versions of Jan Brewer in business on Twitter. And her Facebook page now rivals those of national political figures in terms of popularity.

Many of Brewer's critics and observers are bewildered by her celebrity. They point out she is the "accidental governor" -- she became the state's top official when Gov. Janet Napolitano left in 2009 for a spot in President Barack Obama's Cabinet -- and shake their heads at her ascent.

But to her supporters, Brewer has become a patriotic symbol of resistance against a federal government that they believe has exceeded its authority.

Political experts say it is unusual for a governor to gain such star power in a short amount of time. They compare Brewer's national name recognition to that of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Texas Gov. Rick Perry. People outside those states are largely unaware of those governors' duties, experts say, but they tend to have affection for the way they champion their philosophies and take their fight to the other side.

Brewer would not discuss her national celebrity, but observers and those close to her say she's thrilled to be so widely recognized.

"Once upon of time, she was plain old Jan Brewer in the phone book, and now, she is … a national figure," political consultant Stan Barnes said. "She's a symbol of a willingness to speak truth about difficult issues. Love her or hate her, everybody believes Jan Brewer knows who she is and you can count on her to come at key issues with a belief system that is unwavered."

'True to her philosophies'

Brewer, the mother of three sons, was only moderately recognizable prior to 2009, when as secretary of state she became the state's No. 1 Republican when Napolitano stepped down to become secretary of the Department of Homeland Security.

By then, Brewer had been involved in elective state politics for 25 years, first as a lawmaker, then as a Maricopa County supervisor and then as secretary of state, the state's second-in-command. She has been involved in the state party even longer, attending breakfasts, conferences and rallies for 20 years prior.

She's always lit up the room, friends say, with her "down-to-earth Republican Party girl attitude."

But she was never in the limelight. As secretary of state, she made headlines only for her election duties. But as governor, her pro-Second Amendment and anti-abortion stances as well as her efforts to cut government spending have thrust her center stage.

Carol Springer, Brewer's longtime friend and former colleague at the state Capitol, says Brewer has rarely strayed from her conservative principles, an attribute that resonates with the party faithful. "If anything, she's just been extremely predictable," Springer said. "A lot of times, you see how people change when they get into office ? and she's never done that. She's always been true to her philosophies, and she's never strayed from them."

When Brewer became governor, she became the face of Arizona's Republican Party. Her supporters immediately lauded her as a conservative but pragmatic leader who would reel in spending and crack down on illegal immigration.

During her first 14 months on the job, Brewer flew largely under the national radar and was focused on budget battles with the Legislature.

A year later, Arizona's immigration law, Senate Bill 1070, rocked Brewer's political world and made her a household name.

Into the spotlight with SB 1070

Brewer's signing of SB 1070, carried live by cable media, introduced America to Arizona's 22nd governor.

She instantly shot to superstardom. She became a regular on conservative news shows -- favoring the conservative Fox News -- talking about the federal government's failure to secure the U.S.-Mexican border.

"Where she has people's admiration is that she is trying to solve a very difficult problem -- and using the rule of law to do it -- and she's not going to let anyone intimidate her or stop her," Fox's Sean Hannity told The Republic.

Brewer hit the road, speaking at conferences and before county Republican groups from Idaho to Arkansas about what she said was Obama's inaction to secure the border and her efforts to enforce Arizona's laws. She met with the president in the Oval Office, where she asked the federal government to complete a border fence and send more resources to help combat illegal-drug trafficking.

Brewer's political philosophies and personal story resonates with RonaleeLinsenmann of Nampa, Idaho. The 59-year-old director of the Canyon County Republican Women heard Brewer speak this year to a political group and is impressed with her resilience as much as her politics.

A homemaker and mother, Linsenmann said the governor is "strong and courageous and sticks to her principals" and stands for everything that is right with politics.

"She talked about states' rights," Linsenmann said. "Of course, she did refer to the immigration issue, as she's been our stalwart -- our heroine. You don't get any sense of a facade, or that she's trying to create some kind of aura about herself that is not real."

Following Brewer's remarks, Linsenmann and other women took a photo with the governor. Each held up an index finger in honor of Brewer's manicured pointer finger, which wagged in Obama's face during his January visit to the Valley.

That finger wag made Brewer an international sensation after a photo of the incident went viral. That she would stand up to the most powerful man in the world -- and make no apologies for it -- fired up a large segment of the GOP base, which believes the Obama administration has failed to protect border states from violent Mexican drug runners and human smugglers.

"One important part of her story is that iconic picture in which she appears to be taking on President Obama," said John J. "Jack" Pitney Jr., a government professor at Claremont McKenna College in Southern California. "The core partisans on each side really have an affection for champions who take the fight to the other side, and they see Jan Brewer as having done that."

Images of the encounter are now emblazoned on everything -- onesies, ornaments, buttons, T-shirts, coffee mugs, aprons -- and are available for sale. Photos signed by Brewer are selling online for $100.

An unscripted politician

Brewer enjoys her celebrity, her advisers say.

Her longtime friends and newfound fans say her warmth and down-to-earth personality appeal to the public. In an era of professional politicians, focus groups and talking points, they say it is refreshing to find an unscripted politician.

"She doesn't speak in riddles or ambiguity. ? And in an era where there's so much deception, Jan Brewer is a breath of fresh air," said Scott Baugh, chairman of the Republican Party of Orange County, which invited Brewer to speak at a dinner earlier this year.

As many as 1,000 people attended, Baugh said.

"They loved her!" he said. "When Governor Brewer spoke, you could have heard a pin drop."

The crowd at the Republican National Convention roared for Brewer during the Aug. 28 state-by-state roll call in Tampa, when she introduced herself as "Jan Brewer, governor of the great state of Arizona."

The applause went on long enough that Brewer had to acknowledge the reception. "Fellow delegates -- thank you!" she said.

Throughout the three-day GOP gathering, Brewer frequently was approached by delegates and conventiongoers from other states, who either offered her their compliments or requested an autograph or photo.

"She was just mobbed," recalled Larry Sabato, a national political expert who ran into Brewer on the floor of the convention. "It's unusual for a governor to be recognized as much as she was."

But as Brewer has become so popular, she also has become part of America's pop culture.

Academy Award winner Mary Steenburgen played Brewer in a two-minute satirical video mocking the governor's stance on illegal immigration while introducing a "self-deportation station." ("Right now, Arizona is just an OK place to live, and it's getting more not OK because of illegals," the fake governor says.)

HBO's "The Newsroom" dedicated an episode to Brewer's signing of SB 1070. And a parody version of "Bonefinger," sung to the tune of "Goldfinger" from the James Bond movie of the same name, hit the Internet with the lyrics, "Her finger's cold ? she's really that looney and old."

Matthew Benson, Brewer's spokesman, said she laughs off the parodies and is energized by the support.

"When we're just walking through the (airport) terminals, or waiting to board planes, there are people and flight stewardesses who recognize the governor. They light up, they want to say hello," Benson said. "She draws energy from their enthusiasm."

Gaining emeritus status

It's unclear how Brewer will use her celebrity in the long term.

She has two years left to her second term and has toyed with researching whether a third term would be legally possible.

Insiders have suggested Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney could name her to a Cabinet position if he wins. Others suggest she will quietly leave office but continue on the speaking circuit -- similar to the path taken by former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Some say Brewer misses her private life, where she can garden and go for neighborhood strolls without security details. Others say she so enjoys the national limelight that she won't give it up any time soon.

"She will have an emeritus status when she leaves the governorship of Arizona," Barnes said. "When she walks into a room for the rest of her life, people will stand up and applaud and give her the due of someone who has fought the big battle and won."

Grant Woods, who advises Brewer on legal and political issues, offers insight into which option she may be planning once her second term ends in January 2015. The two were dining at Durant's one recent afternoon when two young women interrupted to thank the governor for her service.

One of the women asked Brewer, "How many years do you have left as governor?"

Woods responded, "Two-and-a-half years."

Brewer added, "This term."

Santorum: I'm conservative candidate for Alabama

PELHAM, Ala. (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum appealed Thursday for votes in Alabama's upcoming primary, calling the state the "heart of conservatism" and casting himself as the best fit for its voters.

During appearances in the Birmingham suburb of Pelham and earlier in Huntsville, the former Pennsylvania senator said he was the true conservative presidential candidate who would present the best contrast to Democratic President Barack Obama in November. His campaign hoped wins here and Mississippi, as well as Saturday's contest in Kansas, would push rival Newt Gingrich from the race and leave Santorum as the leading alternative to front-runner Mitt Romney.

The former Massachusetts governor is too moderate and too much like Obama, having enacted a state health care package that became the model for Obama's national overhaul, Santorum said. Rival Newt Gingrich also has backed health insurance mandates, he said.

"Why would this area of the country put forward a candidate that gives away the most important issue in this election?" Santorum said in a crowded banquet room at a civic building. With his arms spread wide, he added: "There's one option not to give it away."

"We believe in you!" a woman called from the back of the room earlier.

"Unlike President Obama, I believe in you," Santorum said to loud applause.

Santorum was waging a campaign on two fronts: to emerge over Gingrich as conservatives' preferred alternative to Romney, and to derail Romney's march toward the GOP presidential nomination. He told reporters before a late speech in Mobile that strong showings in Alabama and in Mississippi were key to that plan.

"If we can finish first or second in Mississippi and Alabama on Tuesday, that will be a big win for us and hopefully get this race down to two candidates," he said.

"Then we can, again, make the case that there's one conservative who can win in every other place in this country, that has earned the right to take on Gov. Romney, one-on-one, and give conservatives a chance to coalesce around one person to able to win this nomination for the conservative cause."

Santorum and Gingrich were both campaigning hard to win Southern states that will vote in the coming days.

Gingrich has just two wins to his credit: South Carolina and his home state of Georgia. His spokesman said that Gingrich must win the next Southern contests to justify a continued campaign.

In Huntsville, Santorum drew big ovations from hundreds gathered at a state-owned museum with calls for increased federal spending on defense and space programs and less spending on social welfare programs.

Standing under a Saturn V rocket hanging from the roof of the U.S. Space and Rocket Center, he recalled watching the moon landing as a child. He also praised Huntsville's importance to the Apollo missions and NASA in general.

"As an American, I want to say thank you, Huntsville," Santorum said. "Thank you for the work you've done."

Forty-seven Republican convention delegates are at stake in Alabama's Republican primary on Tuesday. Romney visits Alabama on Friday. Gingrich visited earlier in the week, including a stop at the space museum.

Decatur resident Robert Couey, who attended both space center events, said Thursday that he doesn't support Romney and contended that Romney isn't conservative enough. Couey said he likes Santorum, adding that he thinks Gingrich has been inconsistent on issues.

"He speaks with conviction," Couey said of Santorum. "Gingrich is intelligent. He has the background but look at ... all the things he's said."

Huntsville resident Gay Nyberg said she is down to deciding between Santorum and Gingrich. Romney, she said, isn't for her.

"I think the other guy is not a true conservative," she said, "and I don't know that I can trust him to represent me."

Conservative NY congresswoman in redistricting danger — from her own party

New York Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle, ranked by the Club for Growth as the most conservative woman in the House, may have a difficult road to re-election this fall as a result of a redistricting — not because Democrats are trying to get rid of her, but because her own party is.

The redistricting map submitted by the New York Republican state Senate would all but ensure that Buerkle doesn’t win reelection in New York’s 25th District, which she currently represents. The district drawn by the Democratic State Assembly would offer her no better chance. A third compromise map drawn by a judge suits Buerkle much better.

Sources near Buerkle’s campaign suggested that the arrangement of the map was political on the part of state Senate Republicans.

“It’s hardly surprising that Albany politicians and lobbyists have allowed cheap politics to dominate this process,” said a source close to her campaign. “But the voters of New York have grown tired of shady backroom deals, and they will see right through this.”

Buerkle wrote an open letter to the judge in which she made clear just how displeased she was with the map put forward by her own party. She urged that both the Republican and Democratic maps be rejected.

But “when she expressed concerns that the process was unfair [to New York Republican leadership], several folks in the leadership in Albany dismissed her concerns as irrelevant and indicated to the campaign that she didn’t factor in their outcome,” said another source familiar with the situation.

Scott Reif, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos, called the allegations of political motives “absolutely not true,” in a statement provided to The Daily Caller. “The district lines that we proposed were based on population shifts that occurred since the last census,” Skelos wrote.

But displeasure at Buerkle on the part of the leadership would not be entirely surprising, other sources say.

“Rep. Buerkle has upset the Republican leadership in Washington and Albany on several occasions and doesn’t seem to care much about what they think,” said Republican strategist Michael Caputo. “Not a team player, fiercely independent — call it whatever you want, but she’s not popular among leaders.”

Tom Dadey, Chairman of the Onondaga Republican Party and a Buerkle supporter said that he was calling Republican legislators and urging them to support the judge’s version of the map. He said that if one of the other maps were passed, Buerkle ought to keep her options open and consider running in a different district.

“Obviously I want her to run and get elected in Onondaga county and represent us,” Dadey said, “but on the other hand if she’s going to get railroaded,” he went on, she should consider other possibilities.

Dadey pointed out that unlike other state representatives, Buerkle did not hire lobbyists to plead her case to the state legislature on redistricting, nor did she donate to the campaigns of Republican state legislators, while other members of the New York delegation “contributed heavily.”

Buerkle is ranked by the Club for Growth as the most conservative woman in the U.S. House of Representatives, and by the Heritage Foundation as the most conservative member of the New York delegation. Conservative Party Chairman Mike Long said he would support Buerkle no matter what, even if she primaried another Republican in a nearby district.

GOP Rivals Bond Over Conservative Roots (The Atlantic Wire)

DES MOINES, Iowa – There was plenty of good will and a few tears as six Republican presidential rivals gathered here Saturday afternoon for a forum in which they agreed more than they debated the role of government and religion in society before an audience of evangelical activists.

The atmosphere turned emotional in the second hour as candidates recalled personal challenges and failures, prompting at least two – businessman Herman Cain and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum – to cry.

The “Thanksgiving table forum” was hosted by the Family Leader, a Christian organization that encourages its members to consider their religious views in political decisions. Neither Mitt Romney nor Jon Huntsman, the two Mormons in the race, attended.

The first hour featured questions about hot-button conservative issues, and prompted a discussion among candidates about whether more religious citizens in the country have been marginalized.

“Those of us that are people of faith and strong faith have allowed the non-faith element to intimidate us into not fighting back,” Cain told the audience of about 2,500 in a West Des Moines church. Texas Gov. Rick Perry bemoaned a law that limits political speech from the pulpit, saying pastors needed to be talking about conservative values in church. “And let me tell you: it needs to be our values,” the he said. Agreed Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn.: “That’s not the American way."

Related: Math Says You Should Take Herman Cain Seriously

That prompted the candidates to make a collective argument for getting the federal government out of education and allowing discussion of religion in schools. Leading that discussion was former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who captured the first rounds of applause of the night and was a consistent favorite with the crowd.

Asked about what value he would most like to re-instill in America, Gingrich said, “I think it would be that every American understood that we were endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights, and I wouldn’t have anybody teaching who felt uncomfortable explaining what the Founding Fathers meant.”

Despite the candidates’ devotion to the 10th Amendment, upholding states' rights, nearly all came out in favor of federal laws or constitutional amendments outlawing abortion and defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman.

“When you look at issues like traditional marriage, when you look at issues like the human life amendment, the president of the United States can lead on those issues, can publicly proclaim support and go campaign across the country to get states to support those positions,” Perry said. “That is the virtuous direction that the next president of the United States needs to powerfully go down.”

The notable exception was Texas Rep. Ron Paul, who said he would leave the definition of marriage to the states in accordance with the Constitution. He went one step further, though, suggesting the entire institution would be best left to the church.

“I think the reason we fight and feud over this is because we have too much government everywhere,” Paul said. “I would say the church should make this decision.”

The talk about states’ rights turned to civil rights at one point when forum moderator Frank Luntz, a conservative pollster, asked Cain whether states had the right to say ‘no’ to Washington’s attempts to legislate on moral issues – such as segregation in the South in the earlier part of the 20th century.

The Founding Fathers, “set the bar high,” Cain said. “They didn’t set it where they were, they set the bar high hoping that this nation would aspire up to that level and that’s the journey we have been on since the beginning of this nation,” he said. Cain acknowledged that the federal government had the right to interfere with state law on that occasion because his state was “wrong.”

“I saw the separate water fountains. It wasn’t right, it didn’t feel right,” Cain said.

Although the candidates were in agreement for much of the night – and the tone was that of a group of friendly colleagues – Santorum at times angled for votes from the evangelical audience by saying he had done more to fight for the issues that were so important to them.

“That’s the difference between me and everybody else out here,” he said during a discussion of what the candidates would do to protect life. “You make the assumption that the Supreme Court’s going to overturn Roe v. Wade. I’m not going to wait,” Santorum said. He touted his efforts last year in the campaign to oust three Iowa Supreme Court justices who had ruled in favor of same-sex marriage.

The second part of the night featured Luntz asking candidates to share personal stories and challenges. Cain choked up and almost couldn’t finish a story about being diagnosed with cancer and having his wife tell him, “we can do this.” Santorum got misty-eyed when he talked about the struggles facing his young daughter, Isabella, who was born with Trisomy 18.

There was compassion among the rivals. Perry reached out to comfort both men, who flanked him, as they told their stories.

"I feel like Dr. Phil," said Luntz, referring to the TV psychologist.

Before the event, Family Leader CEO Bob Vander Plaats stressed that the goal of the forum was not just to elicit the candidates’ positions on certain issues, but to also elucidate why the believe what they do.

That goal was shared by moderator Luntz, who told crowd he wanted them to “understand [the candidates’] worldview.”

“There’s a reason Iowa goes first,” Luntz said, “and it’s because of you.”
