Come on home Republicans, it's us against them. The Primary is the time to dispose of RINO's. Once the General Election comes, I will crawl through a hurricaine on broken glass when I'm sick as a dog, if necessary, to vote a straight Republican ticket.

A RINO will at least vote with us part of the time. A Demonkat will NEVER vote with us!

Come on home Republicans, it's us against them. The Primary is the time to dispose of RINO's.

Unfortunately, the national Republican party routinely supports incumbents regardless of how odious the person is.

Two clear pond scum examples come to mind: Lincoln Chafee and Arlen Specter. Both would have been defeated in the primaries, and deservedly so, if the national party had not come to their rescue.

I no longer contribute a penny to the national party as a result.

Sadly, when the time comes, I will almost always hold my nose and vote for a miserably worthless RINO Republican rather than an outright pond scum Democrat. But I no longer buy the "do it in the primary" argument.

Since Lincoln Chafee does not rise to the minimum standard of "miserably worthless RINO", I would not vote at all rather than vote for Chafee.
