You can lose the word "true" for getting a President because it isn't going to happen. A candidate that would appeal to the "true" conservatives wouldn't get elected by the vast majority of the rest of us Republicans.

If you don't understand that fact, then you are going to be unhappy for a very long time.

And while you are at it -- quit referring to President Bush as a Republican in Name Only -- "true" conservatives have no right going around saying who is and who is not a Republican. I resent and so do a lot of others which is one reason your wing of the party and your elitist attitude will not get anyone elected as President. You shove it in our face if we don't believe 100% like the "true" conservatives then we are RINO's. This person is tired of taking that crap from you or anyone else on here. I am a lifelong Republican, conservative, and want to win elections not win moral victories. Moral victories don't get a Republican in the White House and Republicans in Congress -- they elect Democrats!

True---Republicanism and conservatism no longer have much to do with each other, so "RINO" has lost most of its meaning.

Or as Franklin might have put it... we need to hang together or we will relive 1992 separately!
