Even Limbaugh has gone back to the idea that a RINO was a Democrat politician who ran as a Republican when he could no longer win as a Democrat (or because he was up and coming and popular and could knock off an old bull Democrat pol).

Sure, he made some mistakes thinking it was ideology, but it's really all about the CAUCUS.

What we have here is McConnell ridiculing the Democrats. They actually forgot every idea he put forward was a Nixon proposal, or actual legislative program, that was knocked down by the Supreme Court.

It's a silly little difference between voting FIRST for Nixon in 68 or voting FIRST for Nixon in 72. If 68 you remember that stuff. If 72 you don't.

That's why kicking the voting age back from 18 to 21 didn't do much ~ kids just don't care!

You say "Line Item Veto" to them, or "Sequestration" their eyes just glaze over and roll back in their heads ~ where, apparently, they still are except they can run around shouting RINO RINO RINO.

The joke's on them too ~ as bad as Pelosi and Reid.

True enough. But if you say "Obama" to them, you get them all running to the voting booth (sometimes three or four times) "Kumme-bye-Ya"ing all over the place with "Hope-y/Change-y" and "Because he's black, we want him back", and "republicans all suck"!

Yep...that's the youth of today!

Ironically, the first vote I ever cast was for Nixon in ‘72.

That’s not accurate.
