Most of the RINO’s have moved over to the OBAMAREPUBLIC web site.

[Artemis Webb]

I seriously doubt many “RINO’s” who voted for Dems over good conservative candidates are frequenters of FR. FR is a popular site but by and large we aren’t the political powerhouse some would think we are.

This is going to be intersting bump...

Probably time to start a campaign to marginalize Rove. Dan Riehl described him perfectly: Rove is a Progressive Republican. We need to make THAT stick to him.

Jim, if I were you, I would worry about the Senate keeping Mitch McConnell as minority leader. He and Trent Lott have raised money for, and campaigned for “RINOS ONLY”. Now they intend to “co-opt” the conservative newcomers. If Mitch stays in power, forget about the great metamorphosis that we are all counting on, not to mention Mr. RINO himself, John McCain.

I say we need their support.

If they can sit quietly in the back of the bus and let other more sensible folks drive, they don't need to go under the bus.

O'Donnell was simply an awful candidate. She came off like a spoiled child more often than not. Throw that into the reality that she was in a Blue State and that is why she lost. But the more I saw of her, she just came off awful and without even the sense of leadership about her. I hope she goes away now....though because she comes off so poorly, you can bet the MSM will look to make her a mouth piece of the GOP. She will be invited to the Sunday talk shows continually to make the GOP look a fool.

Now Angle, she just ran a terrible campaign and our base simply messed up putting her up Vs Reid. Reid was dead in the water Vs anyone who didn't make the race about themselves. Angle made the race about her and that cost us. Big time. It does seem that the RNC could have done more with the ground game there...but making up 5% in the ground game is a lot to ask for. She lost because she did not make the race all about Ried.

Where the RNC did lose it for us, outright, is in WV. That hillbilly ad they put out killed us. We were winning until the DEMs made hay of it...

I may or may not be a rino, but bring it on anyway!

[BuffaloJack]

A RINO is someone who isn’t honest enough to himself to admit that he is a Liberal and out to switch to being a Democrat.

[lack-of-trust]

You are saying that Rove is so much more influental than Palin that his criticism caused O’Donnell to lose by 15% ???

[Izzy Dunne]

So, no one can post here unless they meet Jim Wayne's definition of acceptable.

Yeah, that'll work. THAT'LL SHOW 'EM !!!

[SENTINEL]

I’ll give you an “A” for attitude.

[circlecity]

Here in IN it was a libertarian running a vanity campaign that killed the Republican in the Donnelly race. Not a Rhino. But I do support sweeping the RHINO chaff from the barn.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

I believe FR is a Conservative web site, it is not a Republican web site.

[GeronL]

Delaware and Alaska are the most obvious examples with the possibility of Nevada. They tried it in Florida and failed.

[Uncle Ike]

For a while, there was a gaggle of Repub-bots (all long-time FReepers) that swarmed virtually every politics-related thread to call us “Trolls”, “Communists”, and “DU operatives”, and, when the Mods let ‘em get away with it, more unprintable names....

Then, about 3 weeks ago, I noticed that they’d all disappeared...

Perhaps the ‘purge’ you’re calling for has already been quietly taken care of....

[SouthernBoyupNorth]

I gots a better Idea.... why dont we just close our wallets to the GOP and send them letters telling them that when they shut Rove the hell up and start backing candidates who won primaries on the up and up that we wil turn the funds on again.... if you want to hurt the country club republicans send your money to Jim DeMints Conservative PAC. Show your displeasure with your wallet. As they say, “Money talks, BS Walks.”

[humblegunner]

kicking them out instantly

Do you have a list of folks you would like to see purged?

Maybe if they're just semi-questionable we could just have a yellow star sewn on their jackets or something.

[whattajoke]

Riiiiiight, Jim. That’ll work. Will you be the arbiter of such swift and subjective justice?

Will you suggest I be banned for breaking the news to you that Christine O’Donnell was an awful, awful candidate? (Note: This is not to say that Castle or Coons was a good candidate.) Just because COD said a few platitudes that we agreed with doesn’t mean there was more than half a brain in her head.

While I think we share the same cynicism with our Federal government and just what will change now, I think your idea of purging FR is a tad bit ridiculous.
