Seems to me, I'd rather have the Democrat that I know what his positions are than a Republican who masks his true intentions. At least the Democrat isn't a liar. If ever there were a litmus test, it should be whether or not they are lying. RINO's are liars. They join whichever party would get them elected.
Don't fall into the trap of electing some guy just because he gets money from the NSRC. Better to vote him out, and suffer the consequences of whatever statist liberal democrat opposes him. Otherwise, he will just keep doing the same things over and over, safe in the knowledge that the R is going to keep him in office.
There is no difference between the Democrat and the RINO. They both lie and say they are conservative.
