Very true. The spectrum on FR is skewed heavily to the right, so that the use of language like RINO is not very meaningful, as a practical matter.
The first thing a lot of folks need to develop is clarity. I honestly think that threshold issue is just too tall an order in the cocopuff conservative land that is FR 2007.

Precisely why I am very parsimonious about using the term. To my recollection, I have used it on only two pols: Schwarzenegger and Chafee. Even non-FReepers can understand why in those cases, one would hope.
