I’m afraid I don’t understand why limiting the criticism to Romney and his fans is an issue.
***Because there are a lot more RINOs than just the followers of Mitt Romney. It’s RINOs who crossed over and voted for Obama in the last election. Instead of rounding up the whole herd of them, JimRob is picking off the stragglers. The net effect with that approach is to make the herd stronger, rather than weaker.

You may be right, but I fail to see how.

Perhaps that is a good reason as to why it isn’t a good idea to tell our fellow Americans that they, “RINOS”, aren’t welcome in the Republican party. I’d rather a “RINO” vote for a Republican than a Democrat. We might not have gotten Obama if we’d stop shooting those who at least agree with us on most of the issues.

Seems to me that anyone who disagrees with a self-described “conservative” on even one issue, is then labeled as a RINO and told they are not welcome anymore. Since when do freedom loving Americans refuse to allow any disagreement whatsoever on the issues?

I know people that you would call RINOS. And yet not one of them voted for Obama. Anyone who thinks that the majority of Americans should or will march in lockstep with the “perfect conservatives” on every issue are living in la-la land, in my humble opinion.
