Right, because those of us who want to crush the Democrats by any means necessary are just a bunch of RINOs.
I don’t think you guys understand the passion that our side feels.
And replace them with what? Their Republican twins? Because thats what you have been doing for 30 years. And for many I did the same. And I am ashamed of doing it. But I cant change it I can only never repeat the mistake. Passion is meaningless. It’s emotion and that is never good for political decisions.
Don’t ‘feel’ anything. Look at a situation for what it is not what you dream it could be. Elect a liberal RINO and the party gets more liberal. Simple math.
“Right, because those of us who want to crush the Democrats by any means necessary are just a bunch of RINOs.

That is because we are focused on crushing liberalism and have found that blindly voting R is not a working strategy to defeat liberalism.
The passion you feel is pure emotion that is being exploited by those who are simply using you. “Something must be done” has been the battle cry of despots since the beginning of time. Doing “something” has resulted in the continued march to destruction.
When you are on the wrong path, continuing is the worst action. Passion cries for you to continue, but principle compels you to do what’s right. Liberalism is driven by passion, AKA good intention, but conservatism is driven by principle and the need to make the hard decisions when it needs to be done.
Aligning yourself with corrupt party politics may give you a temporary emotional boost when “your guys” win, but it ensures that those whom you profess to oppose maintain their control. Putting party above principle can only have one outcome: a party without principle.
Those of us on the other side have just as much passion as you, but it is tempered by reason and a belief in values that transcend the fear of the moment.
