MARLBOROUGH — .Describing himself as a "consummate outsider," gubernatorial candidate Christy Mihos yesterday called for sweeping cuts in taxes and state employees.

Mihos is making a run for the corner office as a Republican after previously attempting to win election as an independent.

"If you're looking for an insider, I'm not your candidate," Mihos said at the a breakfast event presented by the Marlborough Regional Chamber of Commerce.

Chamber President and CEO Susanne Morreale Leeber introduced Mihos as a "dear friend of Massachusetts toll payers and taxpayers."

Mihos told the group of about 50 city and business leaders that he is working with Carla Howell, of the Center for Small Government, on a 2010 ballot question that would lower the state sales tax from 6.25 percent to 3 percent.
