Oh please, the RINOs were alive and kicking LONG before George W. Bush, or even his father, entered the White House. They didn't call them ROCKEFELLER Republicans for nothing. If anything, it's the Reagan Republicans who are the "Johnny-come-latelies". That's why they had to work so hard to get conservatism into politics. The Country Club Republicans were entrenched, and didn't want to give up power.
Lady, I ain't no come lately. I am gone and out the door. As much as it would gives you pleasure to call me names, I ain't even the same room as you, which is called the Republican Party irregardless if it is the small room called the Teddy Kennedy Wing.
