It turns out that it is pretty simple as the following code suggests. I created a base attribute called Validation Attribute. I created a BaseModel that has a validate method on it. That method does some simple reflection to get all the attributes for all the properties in the given class. It just calls IsValid on those attributes to run the specified logic.
Check it out.
