No, A RINO is someone that votes for a liberal Republican and pretends he or she is advancing the conservative cause.

In case you missed it, it was RINO Republicans spending money and expanding government from 2000 to 2006. It has been RINO Republicans teaming with Democrats to push through amnesty bills for illegals. RINOS joined Democrats in trying to block strict Constitutionalist jurists to the courts.

The ONLY way conservativism is to progress is for conservatives to vote for conservatives.

Only in primary elections ... not in general elections running against a democrat. Anyway, that's just my opinion. You will vote anyway you choose to. And that is as it should be.

Who are all these liberal Republicans? If there are any, aren't they from states where conservatives could never get elected, like Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut?

And who are the Congressmen who turned their back on conservatism? They aren't those liberals or moderates -- they were never on board to begin with. Aren't they people who were more or less elected as conservatives?

Today, you say the McCains and Grahams and Lotts and Stevenses (I guess that's who you mean) are RINOs. I'd say they're conservatives who went to Washington and went native there.
