They insist that's the case every time, even if the specific Congressional district within the "Democrat state" is drawn to be as safely Republican as it gets (RINO Peter King represents a heavily GOP drawn district and freepers make excuses for him being a RINO all the time "cuz it's New York and he has to be that way"). Hell, some freepers even argued that "only Lisa Murcowski" could "win" in Alaska, despite it being one of the strongest GOP states in the nation.
Next we'll be hearing that "only RINOs" can "win" in Wyoming, I suppose.
Make no mistake about it, the GOP establishment crowd pushing for RINOs get some help from the useful idiot wing of conservatism.
If GOP Assemblywoman Dede Scozzafava gets the nod, we can’t blame the GOP establishment. It will be because she worked for the nomination while the grass-roots conservatives waited around to see what would happen.
“We’ll see what develops”, said the conservative activists.
