Mike Pence's Vision for the GOP

Mike Pence's staff has released the vision statement that will be distributed tomorrow morning to the GOP members of the House. The money shot:

Our campaigns must value winning, but as candidates we cannot be seduced by the political opportunities of the moment and find ourselves swayed from our principles just to win the next election. As I wrote then in defeat and believe now, in order to attain a strong and lasting Majority we ought to be a new breed of candidates that seek to leave a foundation of arguments in favor of policies that will stand the test of time. We must run not just "to win," but "to stand." And if we stand on that foundation, we will win and usher in a new Majority-one that will be concerned with far more than continuing to retain itself.
Amen to that.
