I met Bilbray before he was a Congresscritter, and while he was a congresscritter.
I don't see him as a RINO. He ain't a tree hugger, and he's conservative enough to fill the Duke's seat.

Well, Bilbray's voting record was rather liberal on environmental issues, and he is strongly pro-abortion and anti-gun (with the voting record to prove it), so I don't think he's conservative enough to be elected to a conservative Republican seat. His lifetime ACU rating (computed in his 6 years in the House) was 71, which was fine for his old seat, but in a district in which President Bush got 55% in 2004 we should not settle for a liberal-to-moderate Republican. Kaloogian appears to be our best choice.
