I've come to the sad realization that McCain is not a RINO. Before the flame throwers come out, listen to my explanation. How can somebody be a Republican In Name Only if the majority of the party is willing to vote for him? I would argure that I and the vast majority of Freepers are the real RINOS because we are conservatives. Conservatives are a small and decreasing minority in the GOP. The GOP is on the downslope toward being a slightly less liberal party than the 'rat party.

What has caused this sad state of affairs? It's not the good conservative majority Freepers. It's the non-conservative majority of the GOP willing to accept open borders, high taxes, huge nanny-state government, abortion, out-of-control goverment spending and First and Second Amendment infringements just so the guy who gets the presidency has an "R" instead of a "D" after his name.

There, I feel better now!

You should feel better, that was one heckuva great post!! You summed up what I and a lot of others feel. Maybe Conservatives are the true RINOs these days, if the mainstream Republicans are liberal.

Thanks for the kind words. I've been meaning to post this for some time, but wanted a year as a Freeper for credibility. My words will sting some of our more liberal Freepers.

“It’s the non-conservative majority of the GOP...”

In how many of the states that voted were crossover votes permitted?
