I don’t agree. The enemy of the good is the pursuit of the perfect. I’d rather have someone who votes with us 80% of the time than someone who votes with us 0% of the time. And that other someone is going to be a socialist Democrat.

We shall disagree then. Wondering when Snowe, Collins, and the usual eight have voted as much as 80% of the time with the Republicans.

I'd rather have two people shooting while they're facing me than one person shooting me in the back.

So would I. The problem is that the RINOs vote against us 80 percent of the time.

I agree with you 100%, but trying to get it through to this crowd is impossible. President Reagan said, “My 80% friend is not my enemy,” but so-called real conservatives refuse to accept the Gipper’s leadership on this point. The best way to ensure that Leftists gain and hold power is to continue ripping the Republican Party to shreds. This why I’m convinced at least a percentage of self-professed real conservatives and tea party activists are actually Democrats.

Vote conservative in the primary election to defeat the RINOs. Vote republican in the general election to defeat the democrats. RINOs need to be defeated, but not as badly as democrats do.
