If you really believe this, then you do not understand how the process works. I'll take a RINO to a "conservative" Dim any day. Frankly, there is no such thing as a "conservative" Democrat but that's beside the point.

The point is that first, we MUST have a majority and how we get there is secondary to just getting there.

Right now, I'd be thrilled to have Lugar back in place of Donnelly. I'd be thrilled to have Brown back in place of Warren, give me Snowe instead of Angus King, etc., etc., etc. You get the idea. Electing a Democrat instead of a RINO is NEVER a good idea. Which ever party is in the majority controls the agenda.

It is extremely disappointing to continually read these kinds of comments here on FR by those who obviously do not understand how the process works. Unfortunately, numbers are so tight, we do not have the luxury of ever voting for anyone other than a Republican.

"Oh, YES, please, PLEASE! Send me more RINOs! I love 'em! They're so squishy! So flexible! So ready to compromise and jettison their principles to get along! Nancy loves 'em! Harry loves 'em! Great, great people!"

OK, you don’t get it. In no way am I saying I prefer a RINO to a conservative. Are you saying you prefer a Democrat to a RINO?
