Got it in one!
The term RINO has been so badly misused and abused, here on FR< for the past 8 years, that it has completely lost its relevancy, any coherent meaning, and is as worthless as can be.
Funnily enough, the very posters who misuse it, are the ones least qualified to attach to anyone one.
To: labette
"Infiltrated", is it, n00b? Look at the sign-up dates of those whom you are condemning, out of hand and speciously, I might add.
Pssssssssssssssssst.....here's a clue and you don't even have to pay me for for it: THE MORE THE RIDY HATERS SOEW, THE MORE PEOPLE YOU DRIVE OUT OF EVEN BOTHERING TO PAY ANY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU POST AND THE MORE THEY RUN TO LOOK AT RUDY AND WHAT HE HAS DONE AND STANDS FOR.

I'm qualified because I hold a Republican office, and I have read and agree with the Republican Platform, Do you?
To: Delphinium
I have read the Republican platform many times over.
No, I don't "hold a Republican office" and what is that supposed to mean? Were you elected town clerk, or some such?
And even "holding office", doesn't qualify you to make up whatever definition you want to for the term RINO.
To: AmeriBrit
Rudy seems to be a likable guy.
Yes, He's electable.
But I can't vote for him because he has a dangerous vision of the constitution that he must swear to defend.
If he wants to be President, he should give it his best shot. - But he should do so as a Democrat.

The definition is easy " R Republican I in N name O only"
The State Central Committee may determine the political affiliation of candidates.
That would leave Rudy out.
Course I live in a Republican state.

You are so offended by the word RINO, but you sure throw around the word "liar" alot. What qualifies you?
Get of your high horse, before you fall off.
To: Delphinium
That doesn't leave Rudy out; though you did manage to type in the correct meaning of the term. OTOH, no state committee can remove the R from the GOP's presidential candidate. Ergo, that leaves your implication high and dry; not to mention invalid.
NEXT? :-)
To: nopardons
But I am qualified to call a spade a spade, and RUDY is a RINO.
To: nopardons
I'll try to respond again, My earlier response disappeared during preview. Which was:
Calm down "old timer". Now IS the time to hash out these differences. We have 2007 to argue ideas and be "idealists". There will be plenty of time in 2008 to vote for the lesser of two evils.

No, actually you aren't qualified to do so, in the least.
Your bias is too overwhelming to allow you to be unemotional; nor does it permit you to be truthful.
To: labette
I, unlike others, happen to be quite calm.
Now is the time to thrash things out; however, now is NOT the time to behave as so many here have, in childish and brutish fashion.
Your time line is out of whack. By early February of '08, if not sooner, most of the bottom tier GOP presidential wannabes will be gone. The primary comes before the general election, you know. :-)

"I'm afraid you're just going to have to get used to so-called RINO's which I suspect is lable that you just slap on willy-nilly to every Republican who dares disagree with you."
Pathetic. You obviously failed to understand what I had written regarding principles. As for disagreements, I do tend to disagree strongly with those who don't seem to understand that my life does not belong to them. It's a first principles argument that seems to have escaped you. Write when you get a clue.

It's not right for me to speak for the "purists" here, But I suppose it would be OK to opine on their opinions.
In general, If we HAVE to vote against our beliefs, it is best to do so later, as opposed to the opening salvo.

Any parent can tell you that it's easy to disagree strongly. Three year olds are especially adept at strongly disagreeing. Disagreeing intelligently, and reasonably however is another matter entirely. You write when you have a clue and can tell the difference. Have a nice day.

What an eye-opening chart. If it comes down to a choice between Hitlery and JulieAnnie, do we have the option of leaving the office vacant for four years?
