I am completely out of patience with the GOP party-above-principle cultists and their shameless attempts to blame the midterm election disaster on conservatives. If what they seek is someone to blame--and it is--these dupes need to look in the mirror. Casting their votes year in and year out for worthless RINOs, always pulling that "least worse" lever, they actually encouraged the RINOs to keep doing what they were doing (emulating the Rats). And why wouldn't they? They knew they could count on the dupes to keep voting for them, no matter what, just as long as they had that "(R)" after their name.
I agree. And what better way to explain the fact that among current set of "front runners" there's not a real conservative to be found. Conservatives have been holding their noses and voting for middle-of-the-roaders for so long that the "moderates" have risen to the top---and they're certainly not the cream.
