What really ticks me off is that the rino's have made this party look weak and in turn keep gop voters at home.
Gop voters stay home even when it comes to supporting a real conservative like Kilgore.
Kilgore was anti illegals and a strong conservative but the rino's have so depressed gop voters that they didn't show up even to support a strong conservative.
Part of the blame is on the voters too. So many gop voters stayed home last november in that special louisiana election because the candidate was accused of getting the seat because of his father. Who cares? Was that worth losing the whole budget. Was electing Gilchrest worth losing the whole budget?
Kilgore aliented people with his Hitler ads...
If you can't win on your own record and platform then it doesn't say much about you when you have to stoop to those types of ads.
The RNC actively supports the RINOs. The party likes RINO's. It probably wishes there more of them, and fewer conservatives.

Spot on. I'm not always pleased with some of the GOP candidates, but the suicide squads on the right who sit at home "to send a message" just keep voting for Dems by their actions. Just like what they are doing in PA to Santorum because he supported Specter.
