I think you have to look carefully at some of these RTL groups, which may be politicized. I know which ones I trust, but I don't know this one. Same with the Tea Party, which was kidnapped in one state.
As for senior members of the GOP," I would trust them about as far as I could kick them.
The higher up in the party, the less trustworthy, these days. Because they have cushier jobs, more to lose in a real conservative reform, more practice at lying, and probably got where they are by prostituting themselves.
excellant point from all views.
