Shooting their own party candidates in the back is what RINO’s do best

I don’t see that in the comments. Maybe it was censored or is still in moderation?

They have become disengaged with the base and latched onto lobbyists and the Chamber of Cronies instead.

Worse, they are collaborating with Democrats to bring down Republicans and make it easier for Democrats to win general elections."

We have another 'projection' situation, where the perp accuses the victim of doing, what he himself is doing. This is a patented Demorat trick. I think Scalise's pal is mistaking the Tea Party for the GOP establishment RINOd. It was Thad Cochran, who's strategy was to throw racial accusations around and pay walking around money to get out the Black Democrats in Mississippi.

These RINO's are indistinguishable from Democrats. So, if Lamar!, Grahamnesty and Collins get re-elected to office, how would that be different from election Democrats as far as policy is concerned?

They are shocked to see conservatives supporting Constitutional government and the party platform and actually meaning it.

Your comment brings this to mind.

The Republican Establishment claim to want conservatism but are then shocked and offended that voters actually want this.

Gee...
I thought the Tea Party movement was long dead and no longer relevant. I’ve been told that was the case a number of times by the MSM.

My, my, my.

The Tea Party is why the GOP controls the House.

From the article:

Claire McCaskill wanted Todd Akin to win the Republican primary in Missouri. So did the Tea Party.

I am sick and tired of this falsehood being repeated about the 2012 MO Republican primary. The Tea Party backed Sarah Steeleman, not Todd Akin. Akin's support base was evangelical Christians and Republicans who supported him as a US House Representative.

What percent of RINOS and “moderate” Republicans were registered Democrats from 1980-1988?

As Democrats moved into the GOP offices, Communists/Greens/Workers World supporters moved into the DNC.

We must not ignore the fact that they are right about somethings.

Democrats have very skillfully played us both against one anther with money in order to insure the lease electable won the primary.

We must at least on our part be more vigilant against such manipulation, and always remember Politics is the art of the Possible. Rino’s may forget this as well as the need to make meaningful changes rather than just win power but we cannot afford either.
