A book called, “Trickle Up Poverty” pages 269 to 274. I just read it a week ago. Pick it up. It’s a great read.
So with this vote he alienates conservatives AND liberals were never on his side to begin with.
This is what RINOs don’t understand, they will never be accepted by liberals. They demand only someone who is as kooky as they are.
My feelings exactly. Russia would not agree to it unless they had an opt out option. Of course we do not have one.
As there is a new story about Republican votes for START, perhaps this could be moved out of Breaking News.
One of the commenters on National Review put it well. “The GOP is the party of Olympia Snowe”. I say, 3rd Party your table is ready.
RINOs are the Ex-Lax for Liberal Legislation.
Exactly.
Brown's only hope was to solidify a conservative base and he has gone in the opposite direction. It's almost as if he just doesn't care. Oh well... I don't either.
actually he is not. i would rather have coakley at this point. brown has become the worst of the worst - a RINO. I respect libs more than RINOs because at least they don’t pretend to be something they are not.

It’s time to STOP START!
The GOP calls regularly for money and yesterday I told them again, loudly, “When you get the RINO’S out of the party, call me and I will see about support”. To date, I see nothing but talk. So far the lame duck congress has been highly successful....gutting the military is the last dog. The Stark Treaty will put the US in third world area....exactly where Obama and his boys intended us to be.
He’s Teddy Lite.
Except that he will be a one-term senator.
That cartoon is right on point. There are a good number of honest conservatives who buy the argument that it’s worth it to elect RINO senators in blue states to swell GOP numbers in the Senate, because only RINOs can win in New England and somer other places. They are mistaken, even if well-intentioned. When a Republican majority depends on RINOs, the only legislation that can pass will be full of liberal RINO fail, and all Republicans, solid conservatives included, will pay the price for it.
So, am I to understand that you saw his very liberal voting record and support of Romneycare and *still* voted for him, even funded him? I considered making calls until I saw his voting record, it screamed RINO. I commented on it then, and felt like I was in the minority, now I see I am still in the minority. That’s fine with me. I am disappointed that I made an assumption about you, I was hoping I would hear a lot about people who stand up and say, I made a mistake I intend to fix fix. Not a personal attack.
I must say CAWW, is that *truly* the best we can expect from Mass? I should hope the people are above such broad generalizations. That to me is like saying, well he is hopelessly addicted, might as well accept it and stop trying to get through to effect a change. How can we do that? Same as everything else, personal relationships. We have an over- abundance of Mass folks migrating to NC, they are truly above us, just ask LOL. However, after a couple of years they begin to see they can rely on others time after time and not the government or anything else.
Brown will suffer the same fate as former GOP congressmen Joseph Cao in Louisiana (supported Obamacare) and Charles Djou in Hawaii (supported repeal of DADT). He was elected because he was perceived as a change from the previous incumbent, not because they wanted a GOP version of Ted Kennedy. His only hope would have been to vote conservatively on bread and butter issues important to the blue collar constituents. Instead, he wants to be invited to cocktail parties at Harvard.
Where are you from, if you don’t mind my asking?
He will be less than one term: Just two years.
