If a Republican knows he has your vote no matter what because of the R after his name, why would he care what you think?

Bingo. Every time RINOs get elected, they know they no longer have to give a tinker's damn about what conservatives want. So they act just like Democrats; raising taxes, passing even more anti-gun and anti-business laws, et cetera. At the most, they'll occasionally throw us a meaningless bone around election time.

No more. Never again.

I say it's time for all those self-described "Republican" RINO-supporters to stop demanding we conservatives support RINOs. I say it's time for those "Republicans" (sic) to start throwing their support to conservative candidates for a change.

Bottom line: I've had enough of these RINO-supporting clowns claiming they're conservative while insisting that conservatives can't get elected. They either need to buck up and support the conservative cause or switch parties.

As the founding fathers said, reovolutions require SOLUTIONS.

In order to eliminate RINOS we must have their replacements in line. Thus we need to keep the majority "R" control so when specter retires he can be replaced with a conservative.

This way RINOs can be squeezed out.

It took democrats over 60 years to build their power capital. They still have it in DC to spend in abundance.

If a Republican knows he has your vote no matter what because of the R after his name, why would he care what you think? Worth repeating. If we had rolled over for Harriet Miers as the "don't worry your pretty little heads about the GOP's decisions, bend over and take it" crowd would have had us do, we would never have gotten Scalia. We are living in strange times, where the GOP favors a Democrat over a Republican (Lieberman) and favors a RINO over a real Conservative (Chafee over Laffey). And we're supposed to meekly trot into the polling place and vote straight party line? I ask you-- what WILL wake up the GOP? I'm willing to entertain other ideas than withholding my vote.
