It also wise to actually LOOK at all the facts, not just fixate on one bit of data that happens to validate, for a moment, your opinion.

Castle is a Jeffords-Crist-Sucaffza-Specter traitor in waiting. Utterly moronic for the RNC to throw away a perfectly winnable seat out of their habitual need to reward the oldest RINO party member on the list.

Have you people learned NOTHING from the NY 23 debacle? From the Specter defection? From the 2008 McCain disaster?

Just because some guy is the "next guy on this list" is NO reason to promote him.

You make a good point, but do not get so fixated that you see monsters under all of the beds.

Not being a resident of Rhode Island, I am not up on all of the nuances of that state's politics, but I am also very leary of "principled conservatives" who have used their righteous indignation over a single point to justify sitting out elections and doing their own version of scortched earth.

I am not accusing you of this, but please understand that I see wild accusations from both sides of the GOP spectrum all of the time on this forum.
