| 1 | Governor Scott Walker | standing up to the government workers' unions in Wisconsin | though pro-life, Walker achieved nothing on the issue thus is vulnerable to a recall in 2012 |
| 2 | Congressman Allen West | public stance against Obama and Democrats | one of the few in Congress who actually speaks the truth; could be a future candidate for president |
| 3 | Quarterback Tim Tebow | inspiring millions with his pro-Christian, pro-life attitude while taking his NFL team from last to first place | ducked a question about whether he supports same-sex marriage |
| 4 | Governor Sam Brownback | signed the best set of pro-life bills in the nation into law in Kansas, and has withstood liberal claptrap against him | could be a future candidate for president |
| 5 | U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe | led Congress in rejecting the global warming hoax, and agreed to debate gasbag Ralph Nader on the topic[1] | |
| 6 | Governor John Kasich | led Ohio to enact conservative economic and social reforms, and honored the star player who defeated LeBron James in the NBA finals | |
| 7 | Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli | continuing his challenge on behalf of Virginia to ObamaCare in the courts and stood up to liberals on other issues | seemed to do more in 2010, but remains a strong potential candidate for Governor in the next election |
| 8 | Russian President Dmitry Medvedev | signing "a requirement for abortion advertisers to inform women about the risks associated with the procedure, including the loss of fertility"[2] - the first pro-life law there since communism | Despite his new advertising law is actually more of a neo-Stalinist stooge than anything resembling a conservative. |
