You are clearly a deeper thinker than most folks on this thread.
They're stuck on the childish, “no more RINOs” chant, while you have progressed to addressing the real life, hard choices, requiring critical thinking skills which, apparently, your detractors envy in you to a degree which has made them surly and even irrational.
Well, it is clearly harder to have to take your thinking one step farther when you reside in a state like CA. Some of us have been doing "Tea Parties" here before they had a catchy name and caravans so to now be called "silly" when trying to engage others to see the entire picture is disengenuous to me.
