In view of so many on FR who have somehow become oblivious to the obvious, and in view of the simple logic of you poignant pleas, and in honor of moral simplicity and clarity and espceially CONSERVATIVE CONSISTENCY... I commend you BillyBoy... I commend you for your service to all posters and lurkers to FreeRepublic.com!!!

They should have named the POWERPOINT program after you because you make your points so profoundly. The fact that people here on FR cannot seem to make the connection between the crooked Governor by whim of Illinois (my native state) and the creepy Governor by whim of California (my adopted state) is just astounding!!!

Yes... "Vote for RINOs -- they can WIN!!!!!" is most certainly the folly of foolish people made worse by their self-righteous certitude about it!!! It's just ludicrous, BillyBoy... ludicrous!!!

You know, it actually makes sense. Those who stand for nothing, or have no strong principles as to how government should play in our lives, must be running for office for an alternative purpose. Is it any coincidence that many of the RINOs are resigning in shame or under investigation?

There are good conservatives running for other races. I say support them with extra effort and let the RINOS fall on their asses.

Supporting RINOS does two things that are bad for the Republican party.

1) It tells Republicans that their values are unworthy
2) It enables liberal Republicans to install liberals into higher places in the party and thereby makes the party less committed to those values.
