Jane was anointed by Juan McAmnesty. And you say she is not a RINO ???

Yes, I say that. Being endorsed in a primary by John McCain doesn't make someone a RINO.

You need to clean up Illinois
and not worry about Colorado.

In Colorado she is a RINO.

I suppose I could make a good case that the McCain-endorsed candidate in Illinois' 2002 U.S. Senate primary (Jim Durkin, who got my vote in the primary) was the most mainstream conservative of the three candidates. Oberweis was running as a pro-choice moderate at the time and only had conservative planks on gun rights and taxes, and "true conservative" John Cox (who seems to have gone off the deep end lately and runs for every office on the planet) came off a flake who told people what they wanted to hear, but let it slip that he was against the death penalty even for mass-murdering terrorists.

I agree it's silly to assume so-and-so is automatically a RINO on the basis that John McCain endorsed them in a primary. A McCain endorsement is often a warning sign, though.
