Look, I may be flamed here; but we are not going to elect strong fiscal Conservatives in every part of the country. We are going to have to accept some moderate Republicans if we are going to get back both houses and the President. We are going to have to accept and welcome some “RINO'S”. That is part of the reason the dems won back both houses. They recruited conservative anti abortion dems in those parts of the country a liberal dem had no chance of winning.

It’s asking us to embrace another mini-McCain. Many of us swallowed our bile about the lack of cultural conservatism in Scott Brown, but fiscal conservatism is the minimum requirement. The “jobs” bill is a travesty. Scott Brown and the other Repubs should have stood up and asked when TARP became the Dems’ private permanent slush fund.
