That's not an answer to my question.
Again: how does not being sick of "old white men", to quote you, make me a RINO?
Way to be another “woman first ‘cause I’m a woman” hack, Sarah.
Stupid and dangerous.
And I owe you an explanation why? Because you can’t understand Georgia’s history with GOB lying politicians (mostly white) and a lot of RINOs, why is my job to explain all that to you.
Go google it or something.
LOL, you don't owe me anything. But your dodging the question shows that maybe you understand what an idiotic accusation it was in the first place---i.e, one must get into this stupid game of playing identity politics to be authentically conservative.
That's enough for me.

Voting Rights Watchdogs Cite Ethics Issues, Call on Handel to Withdraw
ATLANTA, GA – Leaders from two of Georgia’s largest voting rights watchdog groups personally appealed today for former Secretary of State (SOS) Karen Handel to withdraw her gubernatorial bid on grounds of unethical conduct during her tenure as Secretary of State. The leaders, John Fortuin, co-founder of Defenders of Democracy and Garland Favorito, founder of VoterGA, presented evidence that Mrs. Handel:
took $25,000 in campaign contributions from individuals directly connected to the voting machine vendor lobbying firm, Massey and Bowers;
reversed her position and supported Georgia’s unverifiable voting machines while accepting the contributions;
Appointed a former lobbyist partner, Rob Simms, as her deputy, thus allowing the lobbying firm to have undue influence and control over the SOS office;
conducted politically motivated investigations as cited in many of 63 impeachment articles filed at the General Assembly against her Inspector General, Shawn LaGrua;
Citizens also challenged state and local news media to investigate ethics questions evenly for all candidates. Mr. Fortuin elaborated: “These are some of the most serious ethics charges that have been raised against any public official. They illustrate in part, how the Secretary of State office has been an epicenter of political corruption for 8 years. Former secretaries have historically gotten a free pass from state and local media on ethics questions even when unethical conduct shows them to be unfit for public office.”
The leaders contend that impeachment articles and supporting documents cited in a Lowndes County State Election Board (SEB) case clearly indicate how a voting machine technician was framed to cover-up violations committed by an elections supervisor who was an acquaintance of Karen Handel. They also cited a December 2009 SEB petitioning case where as chairwoman, Handel referred a former county commissioner for a felony forgery investigation even when there was no probable cause and no evidence that he ever forged any petition signature. The commissioner was petitioning for another commissioner to run against a personal acquaintance of Karen Handel. Both victims in these cases have offered to be available to the press.

Didn’t dodge anything. You skipped over to Old White Men GOBs and assumed that was my main complaint when the underlying gist of my comment is these people seem to be the RINOs that perpetuate our problems - from our Governor to our Senators, to MY Congressman.
And, your convenient argument reduced down to age and race and condemnation and why you don’t necessarily dislike them is why I called you a RINO.
If you’d really cared about the correlation between OWM GOBs and RINOs, you’d have said something else like “who isn’t a RINO there in Georgia.”
You went for an easy argument and didn’t consider why which shows you don’t know squat about Georgia or its politics.
I’ll second that emotion. Sarah Palin has no clue of who is the most conservative candidate in the GA senate race. She thought McStain was the right stuff for AZ.
I admired Karen Handel for fighting and winning the voter ID war agains’t Holder and the DOJ when she was SOS. But she is a moderate and she will not be a warrior to restore the constitutional republic. She’s not bad she’s just not rad enough for the times we are in. Paul Broun or maybe Phil Gingrey are the two choices for real conservatives. Although I just don’t trust Phil after he stumbled into the realm of legitimate rape.
Plus who has deluded themselves that Michelle (seed of Gumby) Nunn is a strong candidate. Get real!!!
He resignation from KSG, among other things, is why I will vote for her.
She endorsed McCain buttlicker Kelly Ayotte an uber RINO. She needs to cut out the “girl crap”.
I’m going for her on the primary. The others I just don’t trust.
Your opinion is like your a$$hole. (in more ways than one) You have one, but it shouldn't be discussed in public.
Lugar is gone now. We got rid of him and we would have won if Murdock wouldn’t have done an Akin.
So why mention Lugar? We all know he sucked.
Ahem, the Almighty is pretty peeved about those murders. It’s a worse sign of disrespect to Him than the lack of any of the desiderata you list. Guess what’s going to go down in eternity.
Does she do this because it is cute, or what? Girl Power ain’t crap if the girl is a big RINO.
“She endorsed McCain buttlicker Kelly Ayotte an uber RINO. She needs to cut out the “girl crap”.”
Don’t forget Carly Fiorina.
Well I initially voted for her in the primary for Gov. Upon reflection she would have been better than Nathan Deal as he is just a major effing disappointment.
But I’m afraid Handel just won’t be strong enough in DC. It will eat you alive unless you are a rebel like Rand Paul and Ted Cruz and Mike Lee. Paul Broun is like that. IMO He won’t be intimidated and I don’t think he will get bought off. Mr. GG2 and I are voting for Broun in the primary. We will evenutally support which ever replublican wins.
Told you that himself did he?
I have a news flash for the abortion warriors. There is a large segment of conservatives for which that issue just plain isn't important. Now y'all can froth at the mouth and thump your bibles at me all day long, but that doesn't change the fact.
Maybe that rude moron, socalpubbie, can go spray spittle over some democrats for a change rather than your allies.
She will support male conservatives, then goes off the rails when it comes to the women. I have a feeling these woman are people McCain likes. No proof, but it is weird.
All you need is to read the bible instead of your own personal manifestos, and sure you and your buddies can pitch yourselves against God all day long but you can’t expect any profit from it. Any freedom that doesn’t have Him as its basis is not a freedom, and all founding fathers knew this.
