On the contrary. We can survive the outright enemies of the republic because they are seen and we can fight them.

However, we cannot survive the slow drift to the left by the GOP. We must have a party that is a true opponent of the socialist/dems and right now that is not what we have. We have a faint echo when we need a clear choice.

I am not saying that you shouldn't vote for your pubbie reps who have been faithful servants and have obeyed thier oaths. But there are cowards and sneaks and liars who support those things that we stand as voters stand strongly againt. Those are the ones who do not deserve reelection.

Reelecting bums only rewards them and encourages them to be a bigger bum in the next term.

Maybe so, but that is still far better than conceding the seat to a Democrat whose mere presence in the chamber helps put people like Pelosi and Reid in control of Congress. Many times, probably most times, a RINO bum's only redeeming virtue is that he or she helps keep control of Congress out of the hands of far worse Democrat bums who would gladly sell us and the nation down the river in a heartbeat to satisfy their insatiable hunger for more and more power over our lives, our property, and our children's future.

In many areas of the US today there is no hope of electing a truly conservative Republican who you and I would approve, you're going to get a flaming RINO at the very best and even that is doubtful. But in many of those districts a reasonably sane RINO can be elected, and that is incalculably better in the long run because a RINO-Republican majority in Congress enables a more conservative Republican leadership team to have a large measure of control over the lawmaking process.
