>>>>Conservatives don't have much use for McCain. I think you are living in dreamland.
If I was you, I'd work on my reading comprehesion skills. Never said conservatives approve of McCain. The issue has been Giuliani vs McCain, and in that matchup conservatives would reluctantly choose McCain over the liberal Giulaini. The Christian conservatives who constitute the Religious Right of the GOP, aren't about to vote for a pro-abortion, pro-homo, pro-gun control, pro-illegal, northeast liberal from NYCity, with a questionable record on matters realted to fiscal responsibility.
>>>>Neocons or RINO's?
The 2 couldn't be more apart.
You're sure about that?
The textbook definition of "neocon", aka."neoconservative" is,
***a former liberal espousing political conservatism
***a conservative who advocates the assertive promotion of democracy and U.S. national interest in international affairs including through military means
Irving Kristol is a neocon. In fact, Irving Kristol is the Father of American neoconservatism. A former liberal, who calls himself a conservative, but one who still supports the New Deal policies of FDR. His son, Bill Kristol, is also a neocon. The latter Kristol supports foreign policy adventurism that spreads democracy through heavy handed military force. Both Kristol's advocate and support big government Republicanism, along with being pro-abortion.
Both men could be classified as RINO`s. Especially the elder Kristol.
Charles Krauthammer is another neocon, aka.libertarian.
Neocon, libertarian and liberal Republicans ALL have been classiifed as RINO`s at one time or another.
