Rather than say that RINO politicians are willing to “compromise” with the opposing party, maybe we should see them for what they are: collaborators. People from one side who go over to help the other side win. Which is exactly what RINOs do. “Compromise” sounds so nice and benign, and even sensible in the political arena (especially when done by Republicans - not by Democrats, of course). But politicians like Cantor are not simply being flexible. They are effectively batting for the other team and willing to sell out their own in the process. It is no wonder that there is loud weeping and gnashing of teeth by libs like Dana Bash over the loss of one of their own.

the election result now makes it unlikely for Republicans to act like Democrats.Who would have thought the voters didn't want Republicans to act like Democrats. Well, who besides Cantor, McConnell, Graham, McCain....

You’ve got the most important post here, and nobody has commented on it?
You’re right, there is a far larger battle going on, and it needs to be won.

Nice to see somebody gets it.
Think we'll need more than just a couple of us to fix it.

I’m happy with compromise - as defined by my first x-wife - “Do it my way or I’ll make your life intolerable” ;’)

Blow it out yer keester.
Seems to me a Democrat dominated congress wasn’t one bit interested in even talking to us in the years 2008 and 2009.
Despite your boy king’s assertion that speaking to your opposition was the best policy.

The communists also like the media narrative that the Republicans are “the Party of ‘no.’” As though it’s a bad thing. And just yesterday I saw a news story where their icon, the Potemkin Village capitalist Warren Buffet, said that the the most successful people in the world are the ones who say “No” the most often.
I’d like to see some GOP Congressmen and Senators adopt that Buffet quote on a daily basis, and attribute it to him.

A government that mostly says no is a limited government and Lord knows we need this on the Federal level. An activist government is poisonous and will tax you to death because its activism is really vote buying. The Democrats are the party of activist government. They are like this on all levels be it state county, Federal
