The issue to me isn’t that one candidate in 2016 isn’t more conservative or not conservative enough. My only issue is with the term RINO when ascribed to progressive, liberal Republicans. Let’s stop calling people like Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush and Chris Christie RINO’s. Call them what they really are, big government progressive Republicans.

I hear you. I held my nose and voted Republican. I would love to vote for someone I actually like this time around. Probably not going to happen.

I know what you mean. The Conservatives call people rino who really are not rino's they are cino's if anything.

Few if any of them (Candidates) are going to be a small government, fiscally conservative, social conservative that is also whatever brand of Christian is most popular today, who also can put two sentences together and sound intelligent, who can keep the media at bay because he/she is as pure as the wind driven snow and also will appeal to people who don't eat and sleep politics.

So let the games begin!

I like Calvin Coolidge by the way.

Or you could keep it simple and just call them Democrats posing as Republicans, and working to advance the goals of the Democrat party.
