My definition of conservative values are low taxes, smaller and less intrusive government, and fiscal responsibility.

Fair enough. Which candidate is promising to do those things ?

I think Cruz came closest. He was opposed to replacing Obamacare with any government solution. He provided a long list of cuts on his website which, while nowhere near deep enough, was far more extensive than any of his opponents. His tax plan was interesting and came closer to being revenue neutral than Trump's plan. Trump hasn't talked seriously about cuts, his Obamacare replacement plan is a joke, and he's made it clear that spending on Medicare, Social Security, Military and infrastructure would go up while tax revenue would go down. Those are not conservative proposals.
