" It would be even easier to sell our ideas to folks in the middle who already believe 60, 70, 80% of what we do. You know those folks... the ones you guys completely despise as "RINO's"."

The man that you are promoting as a good republican for the senate is at 43%. That's a LIBERAL. 50% and 60% is a RINO.

When someone is 70% or 80% in agreement, I will likely support or at least tolerate them (depending on what the 20% or 30% actually is), but I wouldn't necessarily consider them a RINO.

The difference is that I acknowledge that the socialist scumbag that I'm voting for is a socialist scumbag. Specter agrees with him more than Specter agrees with us. I'm not trying to kid myself that Hoeffel is a republican or our friend. I know what I'll get from him. You are deluding yourself (and that's your right) and trying to delude others into believing that Specter is something that he is not. That's wrong.

Distort much? First of all, I don't promote him as a good republican, I promote voting him in as the most rightward viable candidate.

The man is 7 percentage points over the center and you consider that a hard-core liberal? But yet you don't consider a 57 to be a hard-core conservative.

Badray, when you have to lie and distort to prove your point it means you don't have a good one.
