I certainly do "dismiss" RINOs who mirror the democrats on key issues. Stuff like that that is why the GOP is in the minority. Huck's vision of the GOP would be in permanent minority, observe how the Arkansas GOP flourished under his reign..... I'm not seeking an ideal just no Diet Democrats like Huck and McStain.

"If you believe that “fiscal conservatism” is the only conservatism there is, then may I suggest the Libertarian Party. You may find them a better fit."

Whhhhhhat? I've been banished to the land of wind and ghosts? Well I won't insult you by suggesting if you love big government so much there's a whole festering wing of the democrats that you might like.

You are the one telling me I’m a RINO just because I favor another candidate. I’ve never said that I would never vote for our (Republican) nominee, as you have. Even Ronald Reagan worked with Tip Oneal in the day. Is he a RINO for doing this, or just pragmatic?

I may be more moderate than you, but that does not make me a Democrat (except in your eyes).

I will accept your presence in the “big tent”, yet somehow because I may be not as hard-line, you would rather I not vote with you for our nominee.

By dismissing everyone who doesn’t think EXACTLY like you, you have effectively banished yourself to perpetual minority. After losing enough elections, you may come to realize this; unless you favored Ron Paul, for which there is no cure.
