Okay folks, is Herman the newest person to be labeled a RINO?

Well, that Politically Pure honeymoon did not last long.

That "playing with people's tragedies" comments sounds a lot like a "heartless" comment. < sarc> My conservative Inner Child feels sooooo insulted and sooooo violated. < /sarc>

Imagine how Governor Ronald Reagan, Version 1980, would be treated today by the Political Purity Police.

Reagan's son Michael Reagan comments about how his father would have fared in the primaries today: ….. "If you look at my father and you just knew him as governor -- raised taxes, signed an abortion bill, no-fault divorce, and a few other things -- today, the argument against him would come from the Right; not from the Left. ….. He would have trouble getting his own nomination, but yet he ended up being the greatest president in our lifetimes. ….. We need to look at the whole package, the whole picture, everybody, and stop nit-picking ourselves to death."

Meanwhile, the most liberal GOP candidate, Mitt Romney, stands on the sidelines and smiles.

My major worry about Cain (apart from never having won an election in his life) is that he has not fully thought out the consequences of introducing a Federal Sales Tax. (Cain's a smart guy and he needs to think that through.) However, to equate "RINO" with "Everybody that does not agree with me 100%" is a guarantee of ending up with no surviving GOP candidate other than Romney.
