I meant for generally being a RINO.
Good point. You're right.
However, I might suggest that "RINO" is an incorrectly used term.
From the WH all tthe way to the local level the party of smaller government, personal responsibility, and putting Americans first, has ceased to exist.
The republican party now stands for a globalist agenda, foreign welfare, nation building(?), massive waste corruption and spending, and pandering to what every lobbyist or special interest that promises the best kickback.
specter is, in reality, an exceptional gop leader based on the above description.
While you're right about the GOP, I try not to dog it too much, as it's all we've got. At least Specter goes along with conservative actions instead of getting in the way like Chafee and his ilk.
