If you don't like the choice, go out and run a real conservative in the primaries and win. Otherwise, shut up or go form a third party. Whining is for losers and more and more the nutcases on FR are all about whining and losing at the same time.

---------------------------------------------------------

You are wrong on several levels. First, there was no primary. The RINO was picked by Republican bigwigs, not voters. Second, New York already has a third party--the Conservative Party--so there's no need to form one.

I do concur with you about whining. However, unlike you, I don't see anti-RINO conservatives as "nutcases."

I vote for the most conservative candidate in the Republican primary. Even if my candidate loses the primary, I will still vote for the Republican nominee--provided they at least meet a minimum threshold of conservative principles. That rules out folks like Rudy, Romney, and the pre-Palin McCain. Here in CA, I did not vote for Arnold's re-election.

In the NY special election, the selected (not elected) Republican nominee fails to meet the minimum conservative threshold. The Conservative Party candidate is within striking range and deserves support from conservatives.

Having another RINO Republican in Congress who will consistently support 0bama's agenda does not advance the conservative case. In fact, it will harm it, as the DemomRats can claim to have "bipartisan" support as the RINO votes with them.
