|1
|[[2012 Summer Olympics]] participants
|The inspiring athletes are overwhelmingly [[conservative]] and outspoken in their [[Christian]] faith; displayed conservative lifestyles, charity, and patriotism.
|Moved to number 1 because their values and work ethic were so exemplary. Why can't underachieving [[atheists]] learn from this?
|-
|2
|Governor [[Scott Walker]]
|took on and triumphed over [[liberals]] in [[Wisconsin]], including signing new [[pro-life]] legislation into law, rejecting the [[ObamaCare]] health insurance exchanges, and curbing [[Leftist]] [[early voting]].
|Why can't more Republican governors be like Walker?
|-
|3
|Rep. [[Ron Paul]]
|gained support, particularly among young people, for his [[conservative]] ideas, from auditing the [[Federal Reserve]] to reducing foreign interventionalism; did well in his campaign for president
|If Romney had welcomed Paul rather than shun him, Romney may have won
|-
|4
|Rep. [[Todd Akin]]
|stood up to [[media bullying]] and remained a strong [[prolife]] advocate despite the demands by [[pro-aborts]] for him to cave in.
|Set a high standard for principles in politics, and exposed the [[RINO Backers]] in the process.
|-

|-
|8
|[[Richard Mourdock]]
|Treasurer of the State of [[Indiana]]. His sincere, logical answer to a question at the debate for the [[U.S. Senate]] seat for Indiana caused him to lose due to liberal demagoguery
