However, I very much believe there is only one way to advance a conservative agenda and that is to move our party to the right in the primaries but everyone votes straight Republican in the general.
We must stop Democrats at every opportunity. We can never surrender territory to them waiting for perfect soldiers.
Since you are a great grandmother, I am not going to argue with your experience in this area. :)
Sure - a RINO is any Republican who votes Republican instead of voting for a "conservative" third party!
