I agree that this is a big story, but I think there's more to it than just anti-RINO sentiment. Is suspect these results are tied mainly to the heavy anti-incumbent sentiment in Pennsylvania.

It could be. Admittedly, I'd like to use this as propaganda to accomplish two purposes.

1) Encourage the demoralized members of the conservative movement to work within the GOP and get aggressive local to chase Lincoln Chaffee, and others of his ilk, out. I may get into flame wars with a few Freepers, but I'd much rather have an FR warrior than a RINO covering my 6 any day of the week.

2) Send the pink-weiners who repeatedly go as far left as they can while still maintaining the pretense of being conservative via a GOP membership to cut the manure and get straight with the people that voted them in.

Every primary should be at the very least a cursory job interview. Whether you currently hold that job or not, I still want to know if you really want it....

You are correct. It's across party lines for the folks here. Incumbents sold us out, Democrat and Republican. There's not much of a difference anymore. Just about every newspaper in this state was on the "vote out the bums" bandwagon, and it was pretty successful. Now we just need to get rid of Gov.Cheesesteak, former Philly mayor. He was good at running a corrupt eastern city, but god-awful at being governor.
