Tis The Season To Deal With RINOs!
gopusa.com ^ | 3/18/22 | Christopher G. Adamo

Conservative America had better wake up, and quickly! Those who are (rightly) sick and tired of being betrayed by RINOs, at critical junctures where collaboration with the left is often the deciding factor between winning and losing, need to take decisive action on several fronts. The only alternative is to consign ourselves to RINO treachery as an inescapable fate. We are in a position to make significant changes, but the window of opportunity will not stay open for long.

The goal of the RINO “Establishment,” come the General Election, is to always leave conservatives facing a choice between an insipid “Republican” and a leftist Democrat. At that point, we are predictably told that the only “proper” thing to do is to elect the “Republican.” Otherwise, we’ll be voting for the leftie, and we wouldn’t want that, would we? In truth, this vile scam has been far too successful for far too long. The only prospect for change in the political landscape is to stop playing the same game by the same rules.

In simple language, the battle for conservatism will be won or lost in the primary elections, which occur weeks or months prior to the general. And to prevail there, a coordinated effort to recruit truly conservative candidates must be undertaken. Of course the GOP “Establishment” has several political dirty tricks in place to prevent that from happening. Identify these, and organize a strategy to deal with them, and the RINO game crumbles.

The most popular RINO scam is for the candidate to suddenly start sounding like the “Second Coming of Ronald Reagan” during election season. Although it is as transparent as cellophane, this scheme still works!

Besides RINO’s lying about how conservative they are, the other big problem is that the conservative side doesn’t coalesce behind a single candidate even when we all know that the RINO is a RINO. Whereas the GOPe has a single hand picked candidate. Also once it becomes apparent that certain of the conservatives are lagging well behind, they never drop out and endorse the top conservative vote getter. It’s enough to make you think the GOPe are more intelligent than the conservative wing.

The article says a whole lot of nothing. Liz Cheney needs to be made history in November if we don’t succeed in the primary. As a house member she’s small potatoes. No mention of Liz in Alaska. Where’s Sarah in all this? Kelly Tshibaka-who? Then there’s Thune. Not enough hard-core-paying-attention-types in SD. He thought of retirement while Herseth-Sandlin was hovering above like a vulture waiting for the right moment.

The writer needs to acknowledge Susan Collins is the best we can do anywhere in New England. No mention of her. Linda in SC is a heavyweight Murkowski in another red state. Where’s his competition? Who’s gonna stand up to him in the party? I can hold my nose and vote for Collins. It’s not recruitment. It’s individuals wanting to stand up and not wait for someone to come along and pick them. Like the truck driver in Jersey-no experience. Even AOC went that route. No truck driver out there to prevent McCarthy from becoming a more-of-the-same speaker.

Wake me when the primaries are over.

Best way to cure Rinoism is for the Republican candidate who votes with the Dems all the time to repay the RNC for any RNC monies they used to get elected on the Republican ticket.

Good article but thats difficult to impossible at times. I been telling folks that the Buckley rule was a scam for more than a decade. At this point i think we should judge on a case=by=case basis if it’s better to supprt a dem just to get rid of a RINO. For me I’ll vote against Linda Graham (both primary and general) until one of us is gone.

Willard is not up until 2014, this cycle we should be focused on Moran, Thune, Crapo, Boozman, Grassley, Scott (SC), and AMnesty Senators Rubio and Hoeven.

We can’t keep re-electing Assistant Democrats and expect them to not assist the Democrats.

The RNC wants to elect Assistant Democrats.

The RNC is still run by Bush League Republicans.

Make it a moot point. Vote out the RINOs in the primaries.

If they’re not RINOS when they are elected, they will be if they stay in Washington long enough. I won’t be casting my vote for anyone this fall. I’m sitting this one out. My Republican Congresswoman who had her seat stolen from her in 2018, and won it back in 2020, after a long-drawn-out court battle, is up for re-election again this fall. She voted to send aid to Ukraine. I’m done with her, and I’m sorry that President Trump endorsed her again. I called her Washington office about her vote, and told them why she won’t be getting my vote this fall. Every day the Republican Party gives me even more reasons to never vote again. January 6th was the first.

No, No... a thousand times no...
Do not stay home.
There may be genuine conservatives down ballot that need our support.
If a republiCAN’T somehow survives the primary, then register your protest vote.
Vote for any third party candidate that supports your views.

Simply being defeated at the polls by a democommie will not get anyone’s attention.
However, double digit percentages from third party candidates will

"Do not stay home."

Sorry, but that's my plan, and I'm sticking to it. I can't vote for a party that doesn't respect me enough to want to protect my ballot from voter fraud. They've had many opportunities over the past 20 years, since the 2000 Florida hanging chad fiasco, to do something about election integrity, and voter fraud. They failed us all. I won't compromise my values any more to vote for a party that only knows you when they want something from you, and the party that sanctioned unlimited voter fraud on January 6th. I live in central New York State, so it's not as if my vote actually counts for anything anyway.
