“Moral of Michael Barone’s story: Elect more RINO’s. Conservatives cannot win.”
Cotton in AR is not a RINO. Sullivan in AK is not a RINO. Tillis in NC is not a RINO. Perdue in GA is not a RINO. Cassidy in LA is not a RINO. Rounds in SD is not a RINO. Daines in MT is not a RINO. Michael Barone is well aware of this, and when he referred to “more salable candidates” he was referring to conservatives who can win, not to RINOs.
Sadly, you answered my question.
