McClintock strongly opposed Prop 57/58--you supported it.
McClintock voted against the GLBT bills that you think "aren't really important" (e.g. AB 1400 - Civil Rights Act). Just as you ignore the onerous parts of Prop 76, you tried to keep people focused only on Arnold's veto of Gay Marriage, while he passed 6 other Pro-GLBT pieces of legislation. See this post as an example. You then went on to avoid the follow up question, despite posting other questions to me, again trying to change the subject. See Here and Here and Here
In answer to your question, no, Tom McClintock is not a RINO. On most things I agree with him; on others I do not. On Prop 76, I do not. I believe his tepid and limited comment in his endorsement suggests that he may also have some reservations (compare it to his out-and-out campaign for something he passionately disagreed with--Prop 57/58--for which he wrote the ballot arguments).
You supposedly embracing McClintock's position is a self-serving, transparent move of a propagandist. Instead of discussing it, you continue to ignore facts, post deceptive information, or try to change the subject. If Prop 76 is a good law, it should be able to withstand scrutiny.
By the way, you posted more of your deception on Prop 76 HERE, to which I replied HERE, proving you wrong once again. Is that going to be another "Watch FO play cut and run" game, or will you ever respond? One would think the honorable thing to do would acknowledge that you were wrong.
Correction to above. Here is the quote I meant to highlight (although the other one works too)

Your post, in response to being shown the GLBT bills signed by Arnold:
"He vetoed the REALLY important one: the homosexual marriage bill. These are mere crumbs."
AB 1400, the Civil Rights Act of 2005, was hardly "crumbs"!
And you can rant all you want to, but the bottom line is STILL, that:
ALL DEMOCRATS are fighting tooth and nail AGAINST Prop. 76, and so are you and your very small group -- or am I being redundant and I actually covered you, when I pointed out that Democrats are fighting AGAINST Prop. 76?
Virtually ALL Republicans, especially and including REAL CONSERVATIVES, such as Tom McClintock and Ray Haynes, and myself, are strongly supporting Prop. 76, the "live within your means" initiative.
I guess it's "birds of a feather flock together", isn't it?
