You are either a Dem or out of your mind, but I repeat myself.
You advocate electing RINOs because that is what the Party puts up. So they follow your advice and then you blame the voters and excuse the Party.
If it was the people that took us leftward you wouldn't see the visceral reaction and the move back to the right after the Dems have been in charge.
When the only other choice is a Democrat? Absolutely. It's so simple I'm amazed you're struggling with it. There's an election with two libs on the ticket. In other words, you can either vote for a lib, or sit out. I'll vote for the GOP lib over the DEM lib and over sitting out. Why? Because having a GOP lib beat the DEM lib means we get more votes on committees than they do. You need to learn how the system actually works. The reason we have them outnumbered on committees, with good conservatives like Sessions, Kyl, Cornyn, et al, is because we are the majority. There's no way around that. Voting 3rd party is doing nothing but splitting the conservative vote, and thus helping the DEMs. If it weren't for RINOs--if they were actually DEMs, as you seem to prefer--we'd be a minority party. You may think being a minority party is preferable, but you're just plain wrong.
